FAQs

• What types of documents can the PAL-ID1 authenticate?

The PAL-ID1 is designed for authenticating ID documents. It is designed to automatically identify and authenticate ID-1 documents, an international (ICAO) standard-sized ID document. In the U.S., ID-1 includes drivers’ licenses, state ID cards, military ID’s, Green cards and a variety of other similarly-sized government-issued ID cards that people use as proof of identity. Internationally, ID-1 will also include many National ID cards, voter registration cards, diplomatic cards, passport cards and other ID documents.

• What environments can the PAL-ID1 be used in?

The PAL-ID1 has a very small footprint so it is perfect for environments where space is limited. It is ideal for locations where the vast majority of customers will be presenting ID cards rather than passports or other non-ID-documents.

A Windows-based PC is required for standard installations. Custom installations allow the use of thin clients in the .NET framework with centralized processing of licenses and data at server-level.

We currently have a mobile ID Authentication solution, PALIDIN WebID. For more information, click here. 

• How does the PAL-ID1 work?

The PAL-ID1 is a hardware/software platform that captures high-resolution, full color images of the ID document using both natural and infrared sources. The device also “reads” information from barcode and digital watermarks.

After the PAL-ID1 captures the images and the data, the PALIDIN™ Desktop software application performs multiple security checks using a comprehensive database of ID documents. Multiple points on the document are checked to make certain that proper manufacturing technique was used, and that the document itself contains the proper design elements. The data captured from different locations on the document are cross-checked to make sure that information such as name, birth date, issue date, expiration date, etc. all match.

When the application is finished, it will display either a “pass” or “fail” grade.

• What comes with the PAL-ID1 when I buy it?

A power cord to connect your PAL-ID1 to an external power supply (Note: The PAL-ID1 does not need a power supply to work as long as its internal lithium battery is charged)

A USB cord to connect your PAL-ID1 to a PC

  • “With the technology of fake IDs getting better, you need to have an up-to-date solution. So far PALIDIN has worked very well with no problems and FraudFighter’s support team has been great to deal with. PALIDIN was so easy to setup that the dealership got it up and running in no time.”

    Eisenhauer’s York Harley-Davidson

  • “The Fraud Fighter ID scanner just saved us a $22,000 loss.  We had a bad feeling about this guy so we scanned his Driver’s License and it was fraudulent.  That made it very easy to tell him we wouldn’t take his credit card or do the sale.  When our guard followed him out of the store to catch his license plate he decided to run across the major 6-lane road to get away.“ 

    Coffin & Trout Fine Jewellers

  • “On the first day PALIDIN was implemented, a suspect attempting to withdraw $3,000 from a Shared Branching member account – and also trying to initiate a new HELOC loan application in the amount of $43,000 – was foiled when the authentication of his state-issued driver’s license came back as “failed”.  $46,000 of potential loss prevented on the first day of use!!”
