I signed it up for a while ago, but IIRC it was an in-app or web-based signup process. You'd line up your license in the frame, etc.

This other comment has a bit more detail: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=38509331

They use a subprocessor called Onfido, at least in the US: https://onfido.com/

Onfido is a well-known name in KYC. I don’t understand why they are not making the request via Onfido’s app or website.

I don't remember the process exactly, but is it possible they're just whitelabeling Onfido?
