About Vouchsafe

Vouchsafe is a tech-for-good company tackling ID poverty.

It provides flexible, inclusive identity verification and know-your-customer (KYC) technology.

• In 2023, the Scottish Government became Vouchsafe’s first major customer.
• In May 2024, Vouchsafe won an award from the Financial Conduct Authority.
• In November 2024, Vouchsafe partnered with Equifax.
