For the security of your account, all couriers are required to verify their identity in the Relay Copilot app using a valid form of identification.

For new couriers: you must do this to unlock your Copilot account and book routes.

For existing couriers: you must do this as soon as possible to avoid losing access to booking routes.

How will my ID be verified?

We use Onfido, a trusted identity verification provider, to securely check your document. This process includes:

  • Scanning your ID to confirm authenticity.
  • Taking a live selfie to match your face with the ID photo.

What forms of ID are accepted?

  • Passport
  • Driving Licence
  • Asylum Registration Card
  • Residence Permit Card
  • Visa

Full list can be found here.

⚠️ Important:

  • If you have a British or Irish passport, you must use it to verify your identity.
  • If you don’t have one, you can use another passport or photo ID, but you’ll also need to upload a Right to Work share code to verify your eligibility to work in the UK.
  • Travel documents cannot be used as proof of identity or right to work.
