AusweisIDent On-Site

Secure electronic reading of ID card data

For the more than 500 million business transactions that take place each year, companies and organizations need to capture customer ID data at the so-called point of sale, especially when it comes to new customers. When entering into a contract, staff on site usually copy the customer's ID card and then enter this data manually into the computer system. But this can lead to errors and slow down the identification process.

Automated optical recognition using OCR (Optical Character Recognition) is often unreliable, especially when it comes to the address labels used on German ID cards. The AusweisIDent On-Site solution enables data to be read from the ID card chip in an error-free, electronic process. 

Without the online ID function or PIN
It is not necessary to activate the online ID function of the ID card, nor do customers need to know their secret PIN. This means that on-the-spot reading is possible with any ID card issued in Germany after 1 November 2010 and with any electronic residence permit.

AusweisIDent On-Site as part of on-site identification
The service can be integrated into an existing procedure at the company, for example, for on-site identification. One useful added benefit of this system is that the authenticity of the document itself is also checked because the system will detect any manipulation of the chip or document
