Our story

Fonda ID, the French biometric identity platform
PVID certified & eIDAS 2.0.

We built Fonda ID because digital identity security shouldn't be reserved for large organizations. Our mission: make strong, compliant biometric authentication accessible to every actor who needs to know exactly who they're dealing with.

Our mission

Pourquoi Fonda ID existe.

Identity fraud is the most widespread digital threat — and yet most authentication systems still rely on passwords that get lost, SMS codes that get intercepted, or cards that get stolen. Fonda ID was born from a simple observation: a person's physical identity is the most robust authentication key there is, and it is now possible to leverage it digitally in a secure and privacy-preserving way.

Our approach rests on three inseparable pillars: high-precision biometrics (ID3 technology, NIST-ranked), end-to-end encryption that guarantees data never leaves the secure perimeter, and a user experience designed to introduce zero friction — because security that slows people down ends up being bypassed.

Whether it's authenticating and certifying a user, controlling access, validating an identity, or reducing fraud, FONDA ID lets you, from the very start of a transaction, authenticate and certify the right person without weighing down the experience.

FASEAL – Mission biométrique
Our story

Founded in France,
built for Europe.

Fonda ID is a French company specialized in digital identity and biometrics, operating under the European regulatory framework (eIDAS 2.0, GDPR, HDS). Our team brings together experts in cybersecurity, cryptography, regulatory compliance, and user experience.

All our data is hosted in the European Union (France and Germany), with no transfers to third countries.

Our commitments

What we won't compromise
aucun compromis.

Fonda ID rests on four fundamental commitments that guide every technical decision, every architectural choice, and every customer interaction.

Maximum security

End-to-end encryption, zero storage of raw biometric data, zero-knowledge architecture, and regular security audits. Security is not optional — it's the foundation.

Privacy by design

Data minimization, explicit consent, guaranteed right to erasure within 72 h. Your biometric data belongs to you, and Fonda ID cannot use it without your authorization.

Digital sovereignty

Hosted exclusively on servers located in the European Union (France and Germany). No transfers to third countries. eIDAS 2.0 compliance for a sovereign and interoperable digital identity.

Accessibility & simplicity

Complex security that slows the user down ends up being bypassed. Fonda ID targets authentication in under 0.3 s, requires no training, and works across every device and digital maturity level.

Where we apply

4 sectors, 4 priorities,
1 seule certitude.

The stakes are different in every sector — regulations, business processes, and operational constraints all vary. Here's how Fonda ID addresses each specific context.

Banque et Finance

01

Banque & Finance

Instant onboarding, fraud stopped at the source.

Financial institutions face a double pressure: cutting account-opening times (often 3–7 days) and strengthening the KYC/AML compliance regulators demand. Fonda ID solves both simultaneously — without sacrificing customer experience.

  • Remote KYC in seconds: identity verification by facial biometrics cross-checked against the ID document, compliant with AML and PSD2 requirements.
  • Strong authentication without SMS OTP: replaces interceptable SMS codes with on-device biometrics, far less vulnerable to SIM-swap attacks.
  • Clients typiques : retail banks, neobanks, lenders, insurance, and FX platforms.
  • Measurable reductions: onboarding time cut to under 2 minutes, account-opening fraud rate near zero.
Entreprises

02

Entreprises

Unified access control, seamless integration.

The proliferation of systems (VPN, SSO, Active Directory, physical badge readers) creates security silos that are hard to administer and open doors to unauthorized access. Fonda ID unifies physical and logical authentication on a single biometric layer.

  • Unified physical and digital access: a single biometric gesture unlocks the workstation, the server room, and the corporate VPN.
  • Seamless API integration: compatible with SSO (SAML, OpenID Connect), LDAP, and Active Directory — no need to replace existing systems.
  • Auditable and instantly revocable access: every access is logged, every permission is revocable from the admin console in a single click.
  • Clients typiques : mid-caps, large enterprises, consultancies, software vendors, industrial sites with controlled access.
Healthcare

03

Healthcare

Zero patient identity errors. Full compliance.

In healthcare, a single identity error can have irreversible consequences. On top of that, HDS regulation and GDPR impose strict requirements on health-data processing. Fonda ID addresses both with a privacy-by-design architecture.

  • Identification patient certaine : at ER admission, during consultations, or in telemedicine — no possibility of record mix-ups.
  • Native GDPR & HDS compliance: no raw biometric templates stored, traceable patient consent, guaranteed right to erasure.
  • Secure access to medical records: healthcare professionals authenticate biometrically before any access to patient records — full traceability.
  • Clients typiques : hospitals, clinics, labs, teleconsultation platforms, health insurers.
Identité souveraine

04

Public safety & Sovereign identity

Government-grade digital identity.

The eIDAS 2.0 regulation and the EUDI Wallet (European Digital Identity Wallet) are redefining digital-identity requirements across Europe. Governments and sovereign services need the "high" assurance level — the highest the regulation allows.

  • eIDAS 2.0 high-assurance compliance: the only level accepted for European government, tax, public-health, and justice services.
  • Tamper-proof verification: FaSeal produces a cryptographic seal verifiable by any compatible system, with no need to contact a central server.
  • Cross-border interoperability: a citizen authenticated with Fonda ID can access services in any other EU member state.
  • Clients typiques : government agencies, law enforcement, border control, local authorities.
