FaceTec, a leader in 3D facial liveness detection and face-matching, is redefining what trust looks like in the digital age, and it’s doing this by strengthening the very foundation of eSignatures. As organisations expand across borders, securing digital identities has become crucial.
This where FaceTec and e-Ident step in.
By embedding FaceTec into eSignature workflows and orchestrating verification through e-Ident, companies can verify identities in real time, detect fraud with advanced biometrics, and meet regional compliance needs, all without sacrificing user experience.
FaceTec brings unmatched 3D face matching to eSignatures, while e-Ident ensures that the identity data and sources are trusted, compliant, and secure.
Together, FaceTec, e-Ident, and eSignatures are setting a new global standard for digital trust.

Why regulated industries need FaceTec and e-Ident in eSignatures
The stakes are high when it comes to identity verification in eSignatures, especially for regulated industries. FaceTec offers an enterprise-grade biometric solution that adds an essential layer of security to eSignatures without slowing down workflows.
e-Ident acts as the orchestration engine, connecting the right data sources — whether it’s national ID databases, credit bureaus, or passport registries — to ensure the user being verified is legitimate.
In sectors such as banking, insurance, and telecommunications, where fraud attempts are increasing, FaceTec provides strong identity assurance, and e-Ident ensures that assurance is grounded in reliable, auditable data.
This makes the combined solution ideal for organisations using eSignatures in
- customer onboarding
- contract approvals, and
- compliance-heavy documentation
How FaceTec and e-Ident verify identity during eSignatures
What makes FaceTec and e-Ident a game-changing pair in eSignatures, is their ability to verify identity through a seamless, intelligent process. During the eSignatures workflow, users are prompted to take a quick 3D selfie. FaceTec performs the liveness and face match checks, while e-Ident connects that facial scan to a trusted identity record.
Whether it’s a government-issued ID or a pre-authorised identity source, e-Ident acts as the verification gateway that ensures the face being matched by FaceTec belongs to the right person. This real-time biometric and data-driven validation enhances security and delivers a frictionless experience.
Together, FaceTec, e-Ident, and eSignatures transform identity verification into a single, smooth step.
What makes FaceTec and e-Ident better than traditional ID checks for eSignatures?
Traditional ID verification methods rely heavily on manual uploads or shallow image comparisons, which are vulnerable to spoofing. FaceTec and e-Ident eliminate those weaknesses.
FaceTec uses AI-powered 3D face mapping to confirm the person is live and real, while e-Ident ensures the data behind that face scan is accurate and trustworthy.
During the eSignatures process, FaceTec performs liveness detection, and e-Ident orchestrates the identity source verification, whether that’s checking the ID document number, validating mobile numbers, or pulling in credit bureau matches. This layered approach makes FaceTec and e-Ident far more effective in high-risk environments where eSignatures are exposed to fraud attempts and compliance scrutiny.
Can FaceTec and e-Ident eSignatures meet global compliance standards?
Yes. FaceTec and e-Ident together make eSignatures fully compliant across multiple jurisdictions. Whether you’re dealing with GDPR in Europe, POPIA in South Africa, or LGPD in Brazil, FaceTec provides the biometric validation, and e-Ident ensures that personal data flows are lawful, secure, and auditable.
The result is an eSignature solution that stands up to legal challenges and data protection regulations globally. FaceTec captures biometric proof, e-Ident validates it against authorised sources, and eSignatures create a cryptographic chain of custody for the signed document. This level of integration satisfies regulators and simplifies risk management across global operations.
How are FaceTec and e-Ident integrated into SigniFlow eSignatures?
The integration of FaceTec and e-Ident is tightly woven into SigniFlow’s digital signing journey.
When a signer initiates a document, FaceTec launches an intuitive 3D face scan, and e-Ident automatically pulls in the necessary verification sources based on regional or organisational rules.
The entire identity check takes place within the eSignature environment, with no redirection or external apps required. FaceTec ensures the person is real, e-Ident confirms they are who they say they are, and SigniFlow’s eSignatures platform records the verified intent to sign.
This tight integration makes it possible to scale digital trust across use cases, from onboarding to contract renewals, with a single, unified experience.
Who should be using FaceTec, e-Ident, and eSignatures?
Any organisation that needs to verify identities remotely should be leveraging FaceTec, e-Ident, and eSignatures as a combined solution. For banks onboarding new clients, telcos activating mobile accounts, or insurers managing policy sign-offs, this trio ensures each signature is legally binding and identity-verified.
- FaceTec handles the biometric capture
- e-Ident connects it to verified data, and
- eSignatures ensure a tamper-proof record
This is particularly valuable for organisations operating in multiple countries or serving high-risk customer segments. With FaceTec, e-Ident, and eSignatures, trust becomes built-in, not bolted on.
How do FaceTec and e-Ident improve fraud prevention in eSignatures?
FaceTec makes it nearly impossible to spoof identity through photos or deepfakes by requiring a 3D facial scan with real-time liveness detection. e-Ident then confirms that the face matches an authentic and current data source. This powerful combo means organisations can catch fraud before it enters the system.
During the signing process, this plays out in milliseconds: FaceTec ensures the signer is physically present, and e-Ident checks that they have the right credentials. If anything looks suspicious, like a fake ID or mismatched record, the workflow stops.
This pre-emptive fraud detection is what makes FaceTec and e-Ident essential for secure digital agreements.
Can FaceTec and e-Ident be customised in eSignature workflows?
Absolutely. SigniFlow allows organisations to set identity verification rules per document, per workflow, or per user group.
Want FaceTec and e-Ident to verify every first-time signer, but skip repeat users for low-risk transactions? Done. Need to verify only users from certain countries with local data sources via e-Ident? Easy. This flexibility allows enterprises to maintain strong identity assurance without creating unnecessary friction.
FaceTec provides biometric security, e-Ident orchestrates the back-end logic, and eSignatures capture consent — all configurable to fit your unique risk and compliance profile.
What’s the user experience like with FaceTec and e-Ident in eSignatures?
Surprisingly simple. Signers receive a link, take a quick face scan via FaceTec, and e-Ident does the heavy lifting behind the scenes. The identity check feels seamless, mobile-optimised, and intuitive. Users aren’t burdened with manual uploads or confusing steps; they just scan and sign. For the business, every step of the eSignatures process is logged with cryptographic and biometric evidence.
And for auditors or regulators, the FaceTec and e-Ident verification reports provide clear, defensible proof that identity was established and intent to sign was captured properly. It’s trust by design, with zero compromise on usability.
What do FaceTec, e-Ident, and eSignatures mean for the future of digital trust?
FaceTec delivers live, biometric proof of identity. e-Ident ensures that proof connects to a real, verified person. And eSignatures secure the action and document. Together, these three elements form a future-proof trust framework that organisations can deploy globally.
As digital fraud evolves and regulations tighten, the ability to verify identity with confidence will separate compliant organisations from vulnerable ones. With FaceTec, e-Ident, and eSignatures from SigniFlow, businesses gain a powerful advantage: Real-time trust, built into every agreement, everywhere.
