Why do I have to do an ID check?

At Marshmallow, we aim to provide everyone with fairly priced car insurance, even drivers from outside the UK. Making sure that all our customer's details are accurate helps us keep our prices low. This is why we may need to verify the identity of some of our customers before we start insuring them.

After we process your payment, you may be asked to complete an ID Check through our provider, Onfido. Here’s some more info on how to do the ID check.

Will you share data from my ID Check with anyone?

Please don't worry - your data is safe! You can find Onfido's full privacy policy here.
