For Individuals
One identity that works across African borders. Your myID gives you control over your personal data while enabling trusted interactions.
One Identity, Many Countries
No more managing different identity documents for different countries. Your myID works across African borders.
Easier Onboarding
Get verified faster for jobs, financial services, and remittances. Your myID streamlines the process.
Protected Against Identity Theft
With anonymized emails, MasterCode, and TrustCodes, your personal data stays protected even during verification.
Works Even Without Your Phone
Lost your phone? Your TD1 physical slip or recovery flows ensure you're never locked out of your identity.
Free to Download & Use
The myID MobileID app is completely free for you to download and use. There are no subscription fees or hidden charges for individuals.
How It Works
- You: Download and use the app for free - create your identity, manage it, and get verified
- Verifiers: Organisations that need to verify your identity (banks, employers, etc.) pay a small fee per verification
- Your Control: Every verification requires your explicit consent, and a secure record is kept for your protection
Inclusive for Everyone in Africa
We believe digital identity should be accessible to all Africans, regardless of what device they use or where they are.
