IDWall is one of the most recognized identity verification platforms in Brazil. Since its launch in 2016, the company has grown into a leading reference for user onboarding across the region. However, is IDWall really the solution that best fits your business needs?
In Brazil, identity fraud is the #1 problem: organized crime networks, forged documents, and sophisticated impersonations put revenue and reputation at risk. Companies prioritize stopping these crimes above everything else, often even before flexibility or pricing. In this context, Didit has proven to detect and block fraud more effectively than the human supervision approach proposed by IDWall, combining biometric signals, validations against official sources, and a global fraud pattern knowledge base that is continuously updated.
If you’re looking for an alternative to IDWall that truly reduces fraud, has transparent pricing, and is fast and easy to integrate, Didit is the solution you need. In this article, we’ll explain why we’ve become the fastest-growing verification company in recent months: more than 2,000 companies have already integrated our technology.

What does IDWall offer?
IDWall is an identity verification and fraud prevention platform founded in 2016. Many companies trust its technology to meet compliance requirements in Brazil and parts of LATAM, offering features like document verification, facial biometrics, and background checks.
Where it usually falls short for today’s needs in Brazil:
Heavy reliance on manual review, which slows down onboarding and raises operating costs by reducing conversions.
Lack of transparent pricing, with custom quotes and no public prices.
Rigid commercial commitments (volume requirements, minimum contracts, lock-ins, plus renegotiations needed for changes).
Slower integrations, requiring sales involvement.
Limited to Brazil—if you expand internationally, you’ll need another provider.
All of this means that, while IDWall is a solid option, it falls short for companies that need to scale fast, automate, and minimize fraud to the fullest extent.
