IDyou

MSA National now provides lenders, brokers, franchisees and loan writers with an easy-to-use mobile application that simplifies the Verification of Identity (VOI) process. IDyou integrates into MSA National’s seamless online platform and helps create a secure, consistent and client-friendly system for identifying borrower clients.

What is IDyou?

IDyou is a mobile application that can be used on your device to verify the identity of your clients for mortgage transactions. IDyou lets you take pictures of your client and their identification documents in order to satisfy VOI regulations. IDyou’s intuitive system understands the VOI category requirements and guides you through simple steps to ensure a standardised and compliant VOI process within your office. MSA National’s IDyou App is not affiliated with ID.me Wallet.

Why use IDyou?

Changes to legislation across Australia have placed stricter regulations on lenders, brokers, franchisees and loan writers when conducting lending activity. Many states have already implemented Verification of Identity regulations for all loan transactions.

Verification of Identity generally requires the lender, broker, franchisee or loan writer to:

1) conduct face-to-face interviews with the clients;

2) view and store copies of current, original identification documents; and

3) confirm that the client bears a reasonable likeness to the photos in their identification documents.

Storage of the copies of these sensitive identification documents places great responsibility on you. Through IDyou, MSA National offers secure storage of all your VOI documents. All the data you input into IDyou is encrypted and stored on certified secure servers avoiding the risk of loss or theft, and ensuring the security of your client’s information
