The New Zealand Government sought to provide its citizens with a secure and convenient method for establishing verified digital identities to access online services. To achieve this, they partnered with the vendor Daon to implement a robust biometric security solution, likely utilizing Daon's identity verification and authentication products.

Daon implemented a solution that streamlined the digital onboarding process, eliminating the need for in-person verification. The system incorporated innovative liveness checks for security and allowed for seamless photo capture via mobile app or web browser. This dramatically increased public uptake of the RealMe verified identity service, enabling citizens to securely access public services and open bank accounts entirely online.
