In the app
Know when your identity is used. Say no when it isn’t you.
Alerts the moment you’re checked
When a connected bank, telco or lender checks your NIN or BVN, you get a notification with who, why and when.
“Not me” in one tap
Didn’t apply for that loan or SIM? Say so, and Verath sends the dispute straight to the institution so they can stop it.
Lock your identity
Lock your NIN or BVN so connected institutions can’t open new accounts with it until you unlock it.
Your history in one place
Every check, answer and dispute, with its status, so you can see exactly how your identity has been used.

Does Verath store my NIN or BVN?
Identity numbers are designed to be held only as keyed hashes for matching, plus one encrypted copy in a dedicated key vault. Institutions send a keyed hash, not your number.

Check that your phone’s software is up to date and you have some free space, then try again. If it still won’t install, contact support and tell us your phone model.
