MSA National now provides lenders, brokers, franchisees and loan writers with an easy-to-use mobile application that simplifies the Verification of Identity (VOI) process. IDyou integrates into MSA National’s seamless online platform and helps create a secure, consistent and client-friendly system for identifying borrower clients.
What is IDyou?
IDyou is a mobile application that can be used on your iPhone to verify the identity of your clients for mortgage transactions. IDyou lets you take pictures of your client and their identification documents in order to satisfy VOI regulations. IDyou’s intuitive system understands the VOI category requirements and guides you through simple steps to ensure a standardised and compliant VOI process within your office. MSA National’s IDyou App is not affiliated with ID.me Wallet.
Why use IDyou?
Changes to legislation across Australia have placed stricter regulations on lenders, brokers, franchisees and loan writers when conducting lending activity. Many states have already implemented Verification of Identity regulations for all loan transactions.
Verification of Identity generally requires the lender, broker, franchisee or loan writer to:
1) conduct face-to-face interviews with the clients;
2) view and store copies of current, original identification documents; and
3) confirm that the client bears a reasonable likeness to the photos in their identification documents.
Storage of the copies of these sensitive identification documents places great responsibility on you. Through IDyou, MSA National offers secure storage of all your VOI documents. All the data you input into IDyou is encrypted and stored on certified secure servers avoiding the risk of loss or theft, and ensuring the security of your client’s information

IDyou FAQ
Is IDyou free?
Yes, IDyou is completely free and it doesn't have any in-app purchases or subscriptions.
Is IDyou legit?
⚠️ The IDyou app has poor ratings and negative feedback. Users seem unsatisfied with its performance or features.
As seen in other reviews on early versions, it doesn't get pass the sign in page. There are multiple ways to sign in on computer base web page i.e. Google, Facebook & DS login to name a few. Not sure if this has something to do with it. The APP is useless until the sign in problem is fixed!
Useless
Can't get past the first screen. Useless.
Don't waste your time
The first screen asks for username. ID.me does not use usernames. Email address does not work and there is no other link on the sign in screen.
Stupid app!!
It does not allow you to create an account and then you can’t take a call… ??!!
Inconsistent app
My wife and I had to used this app for Identification process.
I had no issue doing my ID with this app. When my wife tried it she could not log in it keep saying that authentication failure. I tried on my phone and same issue.
We asked the guy who needs the ID to resend a new password. After several tries we eventually got in. Almost done in signing, and the app stopped responding. Logged out and log in again but when we log in, all the photos are gine and could not go back to take photos again. We asked to get it reset and send a new password. After hours of debacle, finally finished the process.
The app is good if only without these issues.
Very very unstable and waste of so much time
System has so many bugs, and cannot even login properly.
Waste too much time.
If this is so in useful, please consider remove from the App Store.
Very basic
Very basic app. Only allows the use of a camera to record documents. If I’m out and about this is useless. There should be an option for accessing documents that are stored in files.
Ok but UI not great
It gets the job done but looking forward to 2.0 version. The workflow is a bit clumsy and the app glitches for remote VOI quite often.
Pretty basic and not very user friendly
App doesn’t guide you through what’s required and if you don’t have everything required from the start it won’t save progress - you’ll have to start from scratch again.
Great Remote ID App
Quick and effective. Use Zoom screen share with clients who struggle with technology to guide them through the process, otherwise phone call is sufficient. It would be great if the clients instructions were on the verifiers app also, however on the IDYOU website there are simple step by step instructions which are very easy to follow to complete the process from start to finish. For my first time it took approx. 10 minutes to complete verification for two clients who were adept with technology.
