IDVerse and GeoComply partnership advances global igaming market coverage
World-leading digital ID verification company IDVerse (previously known as OCR Labs Global) has announced a partnership with GeoComply, a global leader in geolocation compliance technology, to provide best-in-breed document identity verification for clients in the igaming industry and beyond.
Onboarding players while balancing fraud and compliance risks is a challenge for companies. GeoComply offers a streamlined solution, IDComply, that combines the strengths of several top verification providers in one place and eliminates the complexities of jurisdictional coverage.
IDVerse’s Generative AI-trained technology verifies in real-time that the selfie used by new players matches the person in the photo of the ID document. IDVerse will equip GeoComply with the ability to authenticate over 16,000 ID documents globally across 220+ countries within the IDComply offering, ensuring the integrity of the identity documents scanned through the system.
Discussing the partnership, Aaron Gould, VP of identity at GeoComply, said: “This partnership marks a significant milestone in our journey towards providing a seamless, secure and inclusive gaming experience for our players worldwide. It demonstrated exceptional synergy from the outset: during the testing and contracting phase, the support we received from IDVerse was unparalleled, showcasing a level of agility and receptiveness that truly set them apart. Their team’s ability to work with us closely and effectively respond to our feedback has been instrumental in achieving superior results.
“IDVerse’s technology has been a game changer for GeoComply in scaling our user onboarding process while significantly reducing the risk of onboarding fraudulent players. Its advanced solution allowed for instant verification of new players across any location and device, streamlining the onboarding process without needing manual intervention. This efficiency not only enhanced player experience but also helped in retaining our loyal customers by providing quick and secure reauthentication for critical actions such as detail changes and cash-out processes. Most importantly, IDVerse aligns with our commitment to meeting the toughest regulatory standards.”
Libby Robinson, head of partnerships at IDVerse, said: “With our new-generation technology, GeoComply can now move even quicker to check identity in real-time, stop fraud and expand confidently across any geolocation with IDVerse’s unrivalled ID document coverage – building a safer, more secure internet. We see a future where every player will have to onboard through a solution like ours – fully automated, fully secure, unbiased and fair.
GeoComply will utilise IDVerse’s Zero Bias AI tested technology that pioneered the use of Generative AI to train deep neural network systems to protect against discrimination based on race, age and gender. This ensures seamless onboarding for any player in any geolocation – to make target markets and user bases larger and more diverse.”
