Step 2: Email Verification Process

Before you can create your VerifiMe Wallet, you need to verify your identity through your email address. There are two ways to do this: using your email address directly, or signing in with your Google account.

Option A: Verify with Your Email Address

Step 1: Enter Your Email Address

  1. Enter your email address on the registration page.

  2. Click Send Verification Email or Continue.

  3. You will be informed that the email has been sent and how long you have to click on the link in the email before it expires.

  4. Check your inbox for an email from VerifiMe.

  5. Open the email and look for the verification link (often called a "magic link"). Make sure you use the link before it is no longer valid. If you did not get it or it has expired, click the "resend the email" (as per diagram above).

Step 2: Use the Magic Link

The verification email contains a special secure link. Important characteristics:

  • The link is unique to you and this registration.

  • It can only be used once.

  • It expires after 15 minutes.

  • Clicking the link confirms you own this email address and takes you to a page with instructions on what to do next.

    What to do:

  1. Open the email on any device (phone, tablet, or computer).

  2. Click the magic link.

  3. You'll be automatically taken to the VerifiMe instruction page with the information you need to continue. Press continue to be taken to the "setup my identity" page.

Didn't receive the email?

  • Check your spam or junk folder — sometimes emails end up there.

  • Check the email address — make sure you typed it correctly.

  • Request a new link from the "email sent" page — this page has an option to resend.

  • Wait a few minutes — sometimes email delivery takes a little time.

Option B: Sign in with Google

If you have a Google account, you can use it to verify your email address and access the sign-up page in one step. Google handles the email verification on your behalf, so no magic link is required.

  1. On the registration page, click Sign in with Google.

  2. You will be redirected to the Google sign-in page.

  3. Enter your Google account credentials and complete any Google authentication steps if prompted.

  4. Once authenticated, you will be automatically redirected to the VerifiMe "setup my identity" page.

Note: Your Google account email address will be used as your VerifiMe account email. Make sure you select the Google account associated with the email address you intend to use for VerifiMe.

Successfully Verified

Once you have completed either option above, your email address is verified and you will be taken to the VerifiMe "setup my identity" page to proceed with creating your wallet and completing your identity verification.
