Hi Joel,
My name is Christian, and I'm part of the partnerships team at ID.me. I'm reaching out to you because you expressed interest in ID.me's verification solution. Generally, ID.me works with large e-commerce sites and ticketing providers in order to deliver our verification product. The reason we typically work with larger brands is that it costs ID.me $2,500 on average to set up, integrate, and activate our technology for each new partner.
Because of those costs, we have a monthly $500 minimum based on our one year contract for verification services. We are actively working to reduce that price point every day in order to make our technology more accessible to small and medium sized businesses. We want nothing more than to make it easy and seamless for any organization to deliver special online promotions and benefits that are protected from fraud for deserving communities like America's military, students, teachers, and first responders.
We trust you understand that ID.me faces constraints that limit what we can do today as a business versus what we want to be able to do. If the $500 minimum is too high for your business, we completely understand and we promise to reach back out when we offer a more accessible price point. We want to be respectful of your time as a small business owner by providing you this context upfront.
If the $2,500 integration fee and the $500 monthly minimum fits into your budget, please reply stating the following:"
