About Us
Defining Security with Innovation and Inclusivity
Our Story
We're embarking on a mission to revolutionise age verification. IDGO was born out of a deep concern for the compromised data resulting from lost or stolen passports and driving licences during nighttime revelries and when used for everyday proof of age and identity purposes. Our focus is on providing a safer and smarter alternative.
We proudly present The IDGO Card – the UK's 1st double-sided proof of age, identity, and contactless pre-paid smartcard, officially licenced and accredited by the PASS Scheme. Our commitment is to offer a secure and reliable solution endorsed by the UK Home Office, the National Police Chiefs' Council (NPCC), and the Security Industry Association (S.I.A).
​
Welcome to IDGO, where safeguarding your identity meets cutting-edge innovation.
Why the IDGO Card?
Security First
​
In a world where obtaining a passport can be a daunting challenge, we're here to simplify the process. Every year, a staggering 400,000 passports go missing, with 54% reported by those under 30.
Fear not! THE IDGO Card provides a reliable alternative to keep your personal information secure, without the hassle of passport woes.
Identity Fraud Combat
​
The struggle is real – 1.4 million identity fraud cases are linked to lost or stolen driver's licenses every day.
​
The IDGO Card exists to combat identity fraud by effectively gating personal information. We've turned the tables on the bad actors, ensuring your identity stays where it belongs – with you.
How We Make A Difference
Third Sector And Public Sector Organisations
We understand the challenges many face in obtaining a passport or driver's licence. That's why we forge partnerships with third and public-sector organisations to assist individuals who may not have access to traditional proof of age and identification. The IDGO Card is your accessible, hassle-free solution, ensuring that everyone has a chance to secure and prove their identity.
​
Diverse Access
​
We believe in inclusivity. That's why we offer bulk orders to third-sector and public-sector organisations, making The IDGO Card accessible to marginalised individuals facing socio-economic challenges. From prison leavers to the homeless and care leavers, everyone deserves secure and convenient identification.
​
Partner with us to provide the IDGO Card to those who
need it most – making a positive impact on the lives of individuals facing socio-economic challenges.

The Founder
Meet Dannii Joyette-Hadaway
I'm Dannii Hadaway, Founder of IDGO, the UK's 1st dual-sided proof of age, identity, and contactless pre-paid smartcard company.
With a background in the events industry, I witnessed the reliance on valuable documents such as passports and driving licences as proof of age and ID for everyday purposes and age-restricted purchases, very often leading to a large number of reports of them being lost or stolen. This is also driving a huge amount of identity fraud crimes.
This spurred the creation of an all-in-one solution for all aged 18+, the IDGO Card.
My vision drives innovation. We're set to revolutionise proof of age and identity products and services. Beyond convenience, the IDGO Card aims to support those facing socio-economic challenges.
