FaceCheck.ID
Face search engine that finds public web pages showing faces similar to an uploaded photo; paid credits are sold for crypto.
Our take: FaceCheck.ID is used to check whether someone online is who they claim to be, for example on dating or business profiles.
FaceCheck.ID is a face search engine: upload a photo and it lists web pages where it has seen that face or similar-looking people, with a match score. You can search for free; paid credit packs start at $19 for 50 searches and add links to the source pages. Payment is cryptocurrency only and sales are final.
A face search tool for checking suspicious profiles. Treat every result as a lead to verify, not proof of who someone is.

The catchCrypto-only payment, credits that expire (14 days on the smallest pack), and no refunds.
Best / not good for
- Online daters screening potential matches for catfishing or fraud
- Journalists and investigators verifying photo authenticity
- Parents or individuals performing personal safety due diligence
- Enterprise identity verification or KYC compliance workflows
- Users without crypto wallets or comfort with cryptocurrency payments
- Screening private-profile social accounts (cannot access private content)
Friction report
Trade-offs to know before signing up.
- Time to valueFast to search for free; buying credits requires a crypto wallet or buying crypto elsewhere first.
- Scale breakpointCredits expire after 14 days to 1 year depending on the pack, so occasional use can waste credits.
- Walled gardenLow: results link to public web pages; exports to PDF and Excel come only with the largest pack.

Using face search responsibly
What FaceCheck.ID itself says about its results and limits (checked 2 October 2026):
- Not an identity match: FaceCheck says a computer can't establish a guaranteed identity match from internet photos, and many unrelated people look alike.
- Cross-check: Scammers often use photos of innocent people, so check other sources before forming an opinion about anyone.
- Not for screening decisions: Results may not be used for decisions about credit, employment, insurance or tenant screening.
- No children: Searching for people under 18 is against FaceCheck's terms and leads to a ban.
- Remove your photos: Anyone can ask FaceCheck to remove their photos from its index for free.
