Define Platform
Use CLEAR across multiple modalities — a web app, a mobile app, a kiosk, or even by sending a direct verification link via email
CLEAR’s hosted verification experience can be launched across multiple platforms. You choose the environment where users will complete identity verification, and the integration approach adapts accordingly.
Web App
Launch the CLEAR hosted flow directly in your web application.
- How it works: Redirect users to the CLEAR URL with the
verification_session.token. - Best for: Web-based account creation, sign-in flows, or admin portals.
- Notes: Works seamlessly with Redirect to hand users back to your app after verification.
iOS
Integrate CLEAR into a native iOS app.
- How it works: Open the CLEAR hosted flow in a ASWebAuthenticationSession.
- Best for: Mobile-first apps where verification is part of onboarding or recovery.
- Notes: Ensure deep linking or universal links are set up to handle the redirect back to your app.
Android
Integrate CLEAR into a native Android app.
- How it works: Open the CLEAR hosted flow in a ChromeCustomTab.
- Best for: Android apps that need embedded verification for sign-up, recovery, or secure access.
- Notes: Use Android deep links or App Links to capture the redirect back into your app.
Kiosk
Run CLEAR’s hosted flow in a controlled kiosk environment.
- How it works: Launch the verification URL in a kiosk browser or embedded display.
- Best for: In-person experiences like retail stores, stadiums, airports, or workplace check-in.
- Notes: Redirects may not apply; rely on webhooks or polling to confirm completion.
No Code
Use CLEAR without writing application code.
- How it works: Generate verification session links from the CLEAR Console or via automation, then share them directly with users (e.g., by email or SMS).
- Best for: Lightweight integrations, pilots, or internal workflows where developers aren’t needed.
- Notes: Verification results are retrieved from the CLEAR Console or via simple API calls.
Key Takeaway
CLEAR adapts to the platforms you already use. Whether your users are on web, mobile, kiosk, or a no-code setup, the verification flow is consistent — and you can choose the right completion strategy (redirect, webhook, polling) based on your environment.
Note on Admin UIsIn some use cases, especially workforce verification, an admin-facing UI may be required to review verification results.
- Typically, verification data is pushed directly into existing systems (e.g., HRIS, IAM, or security platforms).
- In certain scenarios, organizations choose to build a custom admin portal to view and manage CLEAR verifications in one place.
Whether you use an existing system or a new UI, ensure results are securely stored and access-controlled so only authorized staff can view them.
