What is Facial Recognition?

Face Matching Technology

📖 Definition

Facial recognition in KYC compares a live selfie or video of your face against the photo on your ID document. The system analyzes facial features like eye distance, nose shape, and jawline to calculate a match score. If the score is below threshold, you get errors like 'face does not match' or error code 133197 on Binance.
