Why do I need to verify my identity?
Verifying your identity helps keep the Wolt platform secure for everyone, including you. It ensures that deliveries are only made by the courier partner who was onboarded. Since your profile is personal, this step helps protect it and prevents unauthorized access or use.
Why do I need to take a selfie for identity verification?
Taking a selfie helps confirm that the person making deliveries is the same person who registered on the platform. This helps protect your profile and the platform from misuse or fraud.
What should I take a picture of, and what happens if I don’t follow the guidelines?
You must take a clear selfie with your face fully visible - no sunglasses, helmets, or other headwear that could obscure your face.
Please don’t:
- Submit a photo of someone else
- Use a screen recording or image
- Send a selfie where your face isn’t clearly visible
If the selfie taken doesn’t follow the guidelines, your profile may be flagged and could be temporarily deactivated, blocked, or even terminated, depending on the severity of the violation.
How does facial recognition work?
Facial recognition compares your selfie with the photo on your submitted ID. In some cases, a mismatch may lead to account suspension or termination. This process ensures that the person completing deliveries is the same individual who onboarded and is registered on the platform.
