How do I complete my CloudCheck request?

As an accounting firm, we must comply with New Zealand’s anti-money laundering laws. This means we must take steps to verify that you are who you say you are. To make this verification process quick and simple for you, we have invested in new facial recognition technology.

We use facial recognition technology to biometrically match your face to the picture on your ID. In order for us to do this you will be sent a link via a text message or email from RightWay. You'll be asked to:

Enter in the details of your NZ driver licence or your passport
Follow prompts to take photos of your face and identification

This information is then verified through a third party called Cloudcheck, to check and confirm your ID and address. No personal data is retained by us during the processing of verification transactions. We store the outcome of each transaction only.

How to complete your verification

1. Ensure you’re in a situation where you can easily take photographs of yourself, and that you have one of the following documents in front of you:
➢ NZ or AUS Drivers’ License
➢ NZ or AUS Passport
➢ NZ or AUS Birth Certificate

Note: Our systems do not verify overseas identifications outside of those in Australia. If you're unable to complete your verification because you've got an overseas passport, please contact your RightWay team.

2. Open the text message received from RightWay

3. Complete all the empty fields as requested - exactly as they are listed on your passport/driver’s license. Please note: We may have pre-populated this for you, if we have done so and any of this information looks incorrect, please contact RightWay for a new verification text message.

4. Select which document you would like to use to verify your Date of Birth, ensuring you have this document readily available in front of you

If using a driver’s license, you will need to licence number and license version
If using your passport, you will need your passport number and passport expiry
If using a birth certificate, you will need the certificate registration number

Note:

If using an Australian Birth certificate, you will also be asked to list your gender
If using an Australian Drivers License, you will also be asked to list the state in which the license was issued
