# Identity verification **(FREE ALL)**
|
|
|
|
> [Introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/merge_requests/95722) in GitLab 15.4 [with a flag](../administration/feature_flags.md) named `identity_verification`. Disabled by default.
|
|
|
|
FLAG:
|
|
On self-managed GitLab, by default this feature is not available.
|
|
This feature is not ready for production use.
|
|
|
|
Identity verification provides multiple layers of GitLab account security.
|
|
Depending on your [risk score](../integration/arkose.md), you might be required to perform up to
|
|
three stages of verification to register an account:
|
|
|
|
- **All users** - Email verification.
|
|
- **Medium-risk users** - Phone number verification.
|
|
- **High-risk users** - Credit card verification.
|
|
|
|
Users created after signing in with [SAML SSO for GitLab.com groups](../user/group/saml_sso/index.md) are exempt from identity verification.
|
|
|
|
## Email verification
|
|
|
|
To register an account, you must provide a valid email address.
|
|
See [Account email verification](email_verification.md).
|
|
|
|
## Phone number verification
|
|
|
|
In addition to email verification, you might have to provide a valid phone number and verify a one-time code.
|
|
|
|
You cannot verify an account with a phone number associated with a banned user.
|
|
|
|
## Credit card verification
|
|
|
|
In addition to email and phone number verification, you might have to provide a valid credit card number.
|
|
|
|
You cannot verify an account with a credit card number associated with a banned user.
