What Platforms Usually Ask
Nothing. ChainPass is completely free for platforms. There are no onboarding, integration, API, dashboard, custom-development, verification, subscription, or ongoing platform fees. The V.A.I. holder pays.
There is no integration fee and no platform fee and an extensive suite of APIs. Tell us about your platform and we will walk you through requirements.
No. Offer V.A.I. alongside your existing login process or use it as the access method for experiences that require verified users.
Yes. Platforms may use the ChainPass client dashboard instead of building a custom administrative interface. Nothing the client dashboard can do is hidden from the documented API.
Yes. The launch V.A.I. supports the platform requirements ChainPass agrees to administer. If a required capability does not already exist, ChainPass will build it for your platform at no cost.
Yes. Your platform controls its brand, rules, and user experience. ChainPass manages verification, onboarding, platform requirements, and security.
No. Your platform receives the V.A.I. and the confirmations it requires—not the user’s name, government ID, identity document, or verified photograph.
What V.A.I. Holders Usually Ask
A unique seven-character alphanumeric identifier, cryptographically bound to the photo verified during your KYC session. It proves you are a real, verified person without carrying your name.
No. Use the same V.A.I. across every participating platform. If a platform has additional requirements, ChainPass will update your V.A.I. to meet them at no extra cost.
The annual price is set by ChainPass and shown before enrollment begins. Platforms are never charged—the V.A.I. holder pays.
No password is required. Email access alone cannot complete ChainPass recovery.
A live face match begins recovery. A registration OTP or one-time recovery password, followed by a recovery question, completes the normal recovery path.
It lets you confirm face-authenticated agreements, declarations, transactions, and authorizations with a live facial scan—without revealing your identity to the platform.
What Is Held, and by Whom
Only the photo verified during the KYC session—the one photo that proves the user is real. The identity documents remain with the licensed KYC provider.
Any identity release requires the platform’s authorization and submission of its session key through ChainPass—the only party authorized to retrieve identification from the KYC provider.
No. A platform never receives activity from elsewhere in the ecosystem, another platform’s requirements, biometric calculations, or facial-match percentages.
The verification handlers are built. Production live-image matching becomes available when the facial service and public route are activated; timing will be measured after activation.
