Certain identification (ID) is required to be provided by club admins to then be verified by Swim Central's payment software (Stripe) as a security measure. This is in place to protect individual and organisation payments.

1. Valid ID Documents for Swim Central 

The following steps must be completed by the person named as the Account Contact in their own profile in Swim Central as steps cannot be completed by someone impersonating the Account Contact. 

The types of ID in Australia that can be used for verification are:   

• Passport - if using the photo page, this is the only ID required (upload as Identity Document 1 only)  
• Driver’s license - both the front and back of the license are required to be uploaded separately to Swim Central (Front of driver’s license as Identity Document 1 and back of driver’s license as Identity Document 2)  
• Government Issued Identity card - both the front and back of the license are required to be uploaded separately to Swim Central (Front of identity card as Identity Document 1 and back of identity card as Identity Document 2).  

 ID documents should be scanned as JPEG or PNG files, for upload to Swim Central.

1. Must match the name of the Account Contact  (Located under Club Information > Finances)
2. Must clearly display details and is required to be uploaded in colour
3. Must be readable and for verification by Stripe ( the ID be placed on a coloured background when taking a photo, (i.e., coloured paper, desk, etc). If the ID is placed on a white background or scanned by a photocopier, it will not be readable and verified.)
