Mobile Live Scan Solution

Live scan is an electronic method of capturing a digital image of user fingerprints. Unlike traditional ink-fingerprinting, it does not require people to make manual ink impressions. An electronic fingerprint imaging equipment captures the digital image of the user fingerprint and processes it electronically. These prints can also be printed on a paper with a compatible hardware.

Live scan is generally followed by a background check request sent to an agency depending on the application type. For example, brokers and financial institution can have their personnel live scanned to submit background check application to financial industry regulatory authority (FINRA), which is a regulatory requirement introduced by the agency.

Live scan background check can be a mandatory regulatory requirement in some occupations, services, licensing, transactions, etc. The infrastructure for live scan services is maintained by law enforcement and regulatory agencies, which accept applications to provide different services. However, instead of contacting the agencies directly, you have to get in touch of a third party service provider to have your live scan done.

Live scan service providers make use of a live scan equipment to take you through the live scan process, which is generally provided at the service provider’s location.

However, owing to the shortage of time in today’s fast paced life, many people wish to get live scan done at their own location and preferred time. Bayometric’s mobile live scan equipment can help you expand portfolio of services and establish as a mobile live scan fingerprinting service provider.
