Works pretty well may take 2 or 3 tries to confirm a government email. But great idea to confirm your email for discounts through your employer!

I had a moment where I had forgotten some important log in information on a secure government website and was locked out on a Sunday before a holiday, ID.me was suggested by the government site to get me logged back in and 30-45 minutes later after talking to a live person I was back on. Genius, thanks!
