Verify Tenant Identity Instantly — No More Guesswork

Clara's advanced ID verification process gives landlords and property managers total peace of mind when evaluating applicants — all in minutes, not days.

How Clara Verifies a Tenant's Identity in Minutes

Our tenant verification procedure is made to be as easy as possible for both applicants and landlords while offering the highest level of security.
Here's how Clara's ID verification works:
Secure ID Upload

Through Clara's secure site, applicants take a photo of their government-issued ID, like a passport or driver's license. Our system starts checking the document for authenticity right away.

Biometric Selfie Match

A real-time selfie is analyzed for liveness, image quality, and face match with the ID photo. This phase verifies that the applicant's identification matches their physical presence.

Instant Verification Report

Within minutes, you have a verified result. Clara gives you total trust in your tenant screening procedure by immediately highlighting any red flags, such as inconsistent data or tampered documents.

Don't Just Trust a Name — Verify Every Tenant

Fake identification is more accessible than ever in the modern digital environment. The fact that routine tenant screening frequently overlooks sophisticated identity fraud shocks many property managers.

Without proper tenant ID verification, you risk:
  • Renting to applicants hiding criminal records

  • Missing past eviction history that wasn't caught in background checks

  • Accepting tenants using someone else's rental history and credit score

  • Financial loss from unpaid rent and property damage

Clara ensures every prospective tenant is who they say they are — before you sign a lease.
