# Overview

> Understanding and implementing Verisoul Face Match

## What is Face Match?

Face Match is a biometric verification method that uses facial recognition technology to verify user identities. The workflow uses facial biometrics to match and deduplicate users, while ensuring that they're humans through advanced liveness detection.

## How It Works

<Steps>
  <Step title="User Capture">
    The user takes a selfie or short video using their device camera
  </Step>

  <Step title="Liveness Detection & Biometric Processing">
    Our system verifies that it's a real person, not a photo or deepfake. Then it extracts a biometric template from the user's face.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Verification">
    Get the results from the user's Face Match session:

    <div className="mt-2">
      <ul>
        <li><strong>Liveness Detection</strong>: Verify that the user is a real person</li>
        <li><strong>Verify Uniqueness</strong>: Verify that the user's is not a repeat user</li>
        <li><strong>Device and Network Validation</strong>: Validate the device and network are non risky to prevent impersonation and fraud farms </li>
        <li><strong>Authentication</strong>: Validate the face against a previously enrolled account</li>
      </ul>
    </div>
  </Step>
</Steps>
