There is no possibility of any information from ID to be scanned; or the identity of a guest verified upon arrival.

Properties in the US & Canada require every guest to present their ID upon arrival or prior to the arrival. This is to verify the guest identity.
Mews doesn't support scanning of US IDs for the purpose of guest verification, there is no way for properties to verify the guest identity in an automated way natively in Mews. This requires properties to use 3rd party providers that support this functionality.
Having this feature would increase adoption of Mews for properties looking for contactless check-in.
