Why verify?

In the past, we tried several solutions to reduce the smurfing problem in matches — SMS verification, introducing a paywall, requiring Steam accounts with several hours of playtime, and much more.

They helped, but couldn't stop smurfing and multi-account abuse. That's why we developed a radical solution: free optional ID verification — an unmatched level of security to build a more trusted community.

Important!

You can only verify one account

Verification cannot be transferred to another account!

Verification

Choose your account verification method — document capture or face capture (coming soon).

The choice is yours. Both options are encrypted, secure, and only take a few minutes. All you need is a smartphone and original documents.

Protect your account

By verifying your account on FACEIT, you add an extra layer of security.

The verification process ensures visibility for legitimate players and prevents cheaters from manipulating the platform.

Data storage

Your encrypted verification information is stored in Daon's European data centers. FACEIT only stores confirmation that you've been verified — none of your identity data is stored on FACEIT.

What's next

Verification requirements

In the future, verification status will be required to access certain competitions and parts of the FACEIT experience.

For example, players participating in official competitions such as open qualifiers may need to verify their account to compete.

Verification tags

For some accounts, verification will be introduced to maintain access to FACEIT.

This new level of verification will create a much higher barrier to entry, mitigating malicious behavior — especially regarding boosting services and black markets.
