Choice and inclusion for everyone

We believe that proving who you are should never depend on your digital access or technical confidence. Our partnership with the Post Office breaks down the “digital-only” wall by providing a vital face-to-face alternative in every community.

By bridging the gap between cutting-edge security and trusted local branches, we ensure that every individual in the UK, regardless of their circumstances, has a safe, dignified, and human way to access essential services.

Making identity verification inclusive

Our partnership combines Yoti’s identity technologies with the Post Office’s trusted branch network to make identity verification work for everyone.

Whether you’re verifying a Right to Work or completing a DBS check, you have the power to choose between a quick online journey or personal support at your local branch. This approach removes digital barriers, making essential services inclusive, human-centric, and accessible to all.
