How to Verify Your ID via the SWIRL Card App

Ensuring your money and online transactions are secure is crucial. Whether you’re shopping online, managing your weekly budget or trying to avoid debt, ID verification plays a key role in safeguarding your financial activities. At SWIRL Card, we prioritise your safety and security, which is why our ID verification process is designed to be both simple and effective. In this guide, we’ll walk you through how to verify your ID using the SWIRL Card App and explore why this process is essential for a secure and seamless experience.

Why ID Verification is Essential for Your Financial Security

ID verification is more than just a formality—it’s a critical step in protecting your identity and helps ensure that you’re getting the most from your SWIRL prepaid Mastercard. Once you have completed the quick in-app verification process and your ID has been approved, you will be able to access your PIN Code, reveal your IBAN, send money to any Irish mobile number and enjoy an increased loading limit of €25,000 per year.

With online scams, fraud and phishing attempts becoming far more common, verifying your identity also helps prevent unauthorised access to your funds and personal information. A new study from Juniper Research has found that the merchant losses to online payment fraud globally between 2023 and 2027 will exceed $343 billion.

By completing the ID verification process via the SWIRL Card App, you can take proactive steps to protect yourself against these risks, ensuring that your funds are secure whether you’re shopping online, managing your budget, or using your card at an ATM.
