02/25/25 G5 implements enhanced security verification for form submission - G5 has implemented enhanced security verification for users requesting access to payment information on behalf of their organization or making changes to their current access.
G5 Payees, Servicers, and their senior officials have the option to complete and sign access request forms using ID.me and Adobe Sign. This option provides a secure method for online identity verification and enables users to electronically sign requests for payment access rather than having these request forms filled out in paper and notarized.
To use the secure option, the Payee/Servicer and their senior officials must have a registered and verified account in ID.me. When completing the ID.Me verification they must ensure the email address connected to their G5 account matches the email address connected to their ID.Me account and that the email address is marked as primary in ID.me. more »
