The UK’s only bank-verified digital identity service provider, OneID, has partnered with world-leading digital ID verification company IDVerse (previously known as OCR Labs Global) to provide global coverage and additional ID evidence options for OneID® customers and individuals.
IDVerse brings additional digital identity verification (IDV) options for OneID®’s customers that provide world-leading document checking and real-person checks.
OneID® is the only UK identity service which uses bank-verified data to ensure that online transactions are protected by the most advanced counter-fraud measures. The only truly digital ID service in the UK, it is already available to circa 50 million UK adults in real-time, helping to protect businesses and citizens from online fraud.
IDVerse is the most certified Identity Service Provider (IDSP), receiving 20 certifications for Right to Work, Right to Rent and Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) from the United Kingdom’s Digital Identity & Attributes Trust Framework (DIATF). This gives OneID® customers a broad range of UK Government ID profiles to choose from.
Through this partnership, OneID® will use IDVerse’s Zero Bias AI™ tested technology to offer additional capabilities to support business-critical transactions relating to financial services, employment screening and e-signing. IDVerse uses generative AI to train deep neural network systems to protect against discrimination on the basis of race, age and gender and has achieved 99.99 per cent accuracy in independent lab testing.
Adrian Field, Director of Market Development at OneID®, said, “As a bank-based UK identity scheme, OneID® enables anyone who uses online banking to prove who they are online in the fastest and safest way. To extend our reach to those who don't bank online and to offer global ID capabilities, OneID® has chosen IDVerse as our partner for document-based ID. They bring the best in AI technology and services which complement OneID®'s offering. Their next-gen, app-free document recognition and selfie matching capabilities are also unparalleled, removing friction from the onboarding journey and empowering businesses to offer a smooth customer experience.”
Russ Cohn, General Manager EMEA at IDVerse, added, “OneID® customers can now benefit from our extensive global document coverage and forensic fraud analysis and Zero Bias AI™ tested neural network which is trained on generative AI. Our collaboration will significantly improve and streamline their customer journeys, where previously paper-based processes added painful friction. Providing customers with multiple ways to securely verify their identity in seconds will help organisations increase conversion rates and enjoy significant cost savings, replacing existing methods while enabling digital ID verification to be used to its full potential.”
