Tinder, the well-known dating app, is expanding its ID verification feature to users in the US, UK, Brazil, and Mexico, following trials in Australia and New Zealand.

Here are a few key points:

• This feature aims to confirm profile authenticity by comparing user-provided information with official IDs like Driver’s Licences or Passports through a video selfie.

• Users completing the verification process receive badges indicating their verification status.

• The initiative is aimed at enhancing user safety and confidence in connecting with matches.

• The pilot showed a 67% increase in matches for verified users.
