Verification Service
Verify digital credentials instantly and reliably.
Accept and validate Verifiable Credentials from any compliant wallet — trusted, automated verification without manual checks.
Verify trusted credentials in seconds
The Verification Service lets organisations instantly verify any Verifiable Credential — whether issued by Credenco or any compatible ecosystem. A holder presents a credential from their wallet, and your system receives a cryptographically verified result in milliseconds. No PDFs, no callbacks, no manual review. Built on open standards like OID4VP and W3C VC, it slots straight into your existing identity and compliance workflows.
How verification works
Send a presentation request. The holder responds from their wallet. Your system validates the cryptographic proof. You get a clear result — all in milliseconds.
What does this really mean?
A bank onboards a new corporate client. Instead of requesting paper documents and waiting days, it sends a credential request to the client's wallet. In seconds, the wallet returns a cryptographically signed credential. The bank confirms it's valid, unexpired, and from a trusted issuer. Onboarding that used to take 5 days now takes 5 minutes.
Why organisations use it
Manual document checks are slow, costly, and error-prone. Fraud is hard to spot, audits are a headache, and every check adds friction. The Verification Service replaces paper with instant cryptographic proof — valid or not, no ambiguity — and produces a tamper-proof audit trail on the side.
Key capabilities
Instant verification
Results in milliseconds. No manual steps, no waiting. Trust chain validation happens automatically.
Multi-credential support
Verify credentials from any W3C-compliant wallet or issuer. Works across ecosystems and national identity frameworks.
Selective disclosure
Request only the attributes you need. Holders share the minimum — you still get the proof you require.
Revocation checks
Every verification checks in real time whether a credential has been revoked or expired.
Full audit trail
Every verification event is logged with timestamp, result, and credential metadata — ready for compliance and reporting.
Interested in the technical details?
The Verification Service is built on open standards like OpenID4VP and supports credential formats such as SD-JWT and mdoc. It covers the full verification flow — from presentation request to cryptographic validation. Explore our technical documentation for integration guides and API references.
