Crypto is now the costliest category of reported fraud in the U.S. Vouched verifies account holders in seconds at sign-up, re-proves them before withdrawals and recovery, and governs the AI agents and bots now trading on your platform.

With Vouched Assure, withdrawals to new wallets, large transfers and changes to security settings can require a live selfie matched to the account holder’s enrolled identity, instead of a one-time code that can be SIM-swapped.
Vouched Assure re-proves account holders with a live selfie when they’re locked out or contact support, so leaked or stolen account details aren’t enough to take over an account.
