Prevent Identity Theft by Implementing Digital KYC

Identity theft happens when someone steals your personal information like Aadhar card number, PAN details, or credit card information to make an online purchase, access your financial accounts, create a new bank account, or commit any other type of fraud.

Identity thefts are far more common than you think. According to Norton Cyber Security Insights 2021, nearly 2.7 crore Indians were affected by identity threats in 2020 – that is, 45% of adult Indian internet users. With such high levels of risk, financial institutions need to re-evaluate their current KYC processes to reduce instances of fraud while engaging with new customers. As instances of fraud will see an upward trend, it is time for financial institutions to opt for secure Digital KYC processes in place of legacy practices.

Before we understand how to reduce risk, let us know how one becomes vulnerable to identity theft.

  • Unsecure and public browsing: For the most part, accessing the internet is safe. But, unsecured websites and public Wi-fi increase the risk of data, landing into hackers’ hands.
  • Data breach: A data breach is a security incident where sensitive information is accessed without authorisation. This year, personally identifiable information of 5,00,000 Indian police personnel was hacked into and put up for sale online, which was traced to a police exam conducted in December 2019.
  • Malware activity: Malwares are malicious programs that perform several functions like stealing, altering code, hijacking, deleting sensitive data, and encrypting.
  • Phishing: In this type of attack, a fraudulent communication appears to come from a reputable source, which, when clicked on, lands data in identity thieves’ hands.
  • Physical theft: Sometimes, losing a credit card or mobile phones makes data available at ease, to thieves.
  • Card skimming: In credit card skimming, thieves use a small device to steal payment card (credit card, debit card or ATM card) information. When the card is swiped through this device, it captures all the data from the card’s magnetic strip.

Digital KYC to Address Identity Theft

KYC (‘Know Your Customer’ or ‘Know Your Client’) is a process by which institutions verify the identities of their customers to gauge their identity and credibility. Banks, insurance companies and financial institutions heavily rely on KYC before opening a new account.

Identity verification with KYC mainly addresses identity theft. Despite RBI guidelines for KYC, forged documents and financial fraud continue to be a problem. Recently, in Delhi, a group of fraudsters cheated several popular banks and utilised 22 PAN cards, 9 Aadhar cards, and 21 voter ID cards for their operation.

The current KYC processes are heavily dependent on outsourced vendors and are susceptible to both customer and employee fraud. Kwik.ID provides both Digital and Video based KYC identification to address the issues that KYC processes currently face. Our Video KYC process is used for customer identification as mandated by RBI, SEBI, IRDAI, and PFRDA. The process uses end-to-end encryption for maximum data security and prevents your risk of breach or theft with an on-premises setup.

We verify all officially valid documents (OVD) like PAN, Aadhar, Driver’s License, and Voter ID card from the Central Government Database using our Digital KYC offering. Using Optical Character Recognition, our software recognises characters in ID documents within seconds. Besides incorporating security questions to verify details, AI-enabled image processing is an integral part of our Digital KYC process.

We establish identity consistency by comparing user images on selfies, institutional photographs, and photograph on official ID. We also detect liveliness using AI with live-action commands. Both these steps together significantly minimise instances of fraudulent customers.

Get in touch with us to know more about our streamlined Digital and Video kyc process – we can customise a solution based on your requirement.

Give Business a Personal Touch with Video PD

If there’s anything 2020 has taught us, it’s that customer engagement goes a long way when you add a personal touch to it. Be it a phone call, visiting a potential client’s office, or engaging with them over video, a personal discussion is what everyone looks forward to while doing business.

Right before the pandemic hit, most companies and employees chose an offline personal discussion, especially lenders and banks who needed to assess the creditworthiness of the borrower. Come 2021, everyone now chooses a video personal discussion, to ensure the same business is done online, just as smoothly as it was in the offline era. 

Who needs a video personal discussion?

Most often it is lenders and financial institutions that choose to have a video personal discussion with their potential customers. Here’s why:

  1. It gives them access to business worthiness
  2. Helps assess borrower’s income and creditworthiness
  3. Gives clarity as to where loan funds will be utilised
  4. Helps track existing loans and obligations

Moreover, with the surge in digital business over the past year, organisations have harnessed the potential of technology and tools like never before. Most video and Video KYC tools today are AI-powered and offer plenty of features that include AI Facematch, low bandwidth video, omnichannel borrower experience, video call recording, instant customer metrics, and video encryption, too, for maximum security. Here’s how a video personal discussion can benefit your business:

Eliminate geographical barriers: With agents not having to visit customers personally, your organisation can consider widening horizons and reaching out to more customers far and wide, over video. All document authentication can be done while away. This works well not only for agents, but for customers too, because they don’t need to make any more trips to the bank/institution for manual verification.

Meet your targets faster: Video, as an alternative to offline personal discussions, proves to be a game changer because it is equally, (or more) efficient at getting the job done. When done faster, it boosts sales and helps you cover more targets, while maintaining complete security, as well. This doesn’t just improve targets, but the overall customer experience too.

Personalised experience: As much as chatting online or over the phone can be an effective means of communication, it does have its limitations that a video discussion can rule out. To begin with, a video PD allows you to understand the customer’s body language and make the process more comfortable by adapting to their non-verbal cues. You can guide them step-by-step through the whole process and resolve their queries, which they might otherwise hesitate to ask over a phone call.

Reduces operational cost: All this while you couldn’t send agents to customers’ homes and now, you might never need to because of video interaction that has made life easier for everyone. The time spent by agents in visiting customers can now be optimised and limited to quick onboarding and lending.

What we are trying to say is, video PD is the next big thing, and the next is now! Most organisations and institutions have already begun integrating customer video interactions in their day-to-day business processes in the form of Video KYC for Banks and Video KYC India for other businesses. How about yours?

Choosing the Right Video KYC Vendor

With work from home becoming the new normal, businesses too have adapted to digital platforms, and everything that once happened in-person, now happens online. From reaching out to your customers, onboarding them and providing them with the best customer service. But how does one choose a Video KYC (V-KYC) tool to onboard customers instantly?

Traditionally, video-based customer identification process (V-CIP) took days, but with the best Video KYC tools, it can be done in less than 3 minutes!

Here’s what to look out for when choosing a V-KYC platform.

Security and Fraud Prevention

For financial institutions and banks, nothing matters more than protecting their data and ensuring that no fraudulent activities occur in the onboarding process. Any step in the process is a major concern—from storing video data, customer details, adhering to regulations, et al., to making sure there is no data tampering or leakage. With a V-KYC tool like Kwik.ID, which offers end-to-end encryption and AI-assisted Liveliness, Facematch and OCR, businesses are promised complete data security and customer authenticity. The Liveliness tool also captures the customer in real-time, thereby eliminating the risk of any bot breaching the platform’s security.

Demo V-KYC

How often have you been told to buy it only after you try it? When you invest in a V-KYC tool that is important for your business, you deserve nothing but the best. Make sure you are given a guided demo of the preferred V-KYC tool. Right from the ease of operation to the user dashboard, security measures, multilingual interface, low bandwidth mode, your V-KYC vendor should have everything ticked off the list that your business needs for a smooth onboarding experience. Pick the right one only when you are completely satisfied with the KYC demo. You can also register for Kwik.ID’s demo here.

Drop-off Rate

At Kwik.ID we understand how frustrating call drops can be, which is why we are strong advocates of low bandwidth compatibility. With a speed of 176 kbps, we noticed over 85% success rate with fewer call drops and more customer satisfaction with quick onboarding. When your customers are spread across the country, they could be in remote areas without enough access to high-speed internet. In such cases, you need to ensure that your V-KYC/ Video KYC vendors offer a low bandwidth mode, so that no matter where your agent or customer are located, business does not cease due to poor network.

RBI Compliance

For businesses, especially Video KYC for Banks and financial institutions, adhering to the policies and norms is an integral element. Ensure that the V-KYC tool you choose is 100% RBI compliant, ISO certified, and driven by an RE official and an auditor who are trained and authorized to work on a V-KYC platform. Kwik.ID’s V-KYC tool also offers easy deployment on RE’s cloud domain as well as its data centres.

Cost Reduction

Remember the time, effort and money spent sending field agents across areas to complete the customer verification process? Or the wait time customers spent in a queue to get documents verified?

Choosing a time-efficient V-KYC vendor will eliminate all of that. From onboarding 5 customers in an hour, you can onboard up to 20 in an hour! Not only does a good Video based KYC identification tool save time and complete the verification process in < 3 minutes, it also helps reduce travel and documentation cost by  ~80%.

V-KYC Accuracy

After making sure that your V-KYC tool matches all your requirements, you certainly need to assess its ROI via a dashboard that monitors and manages all your data and details stored. Check that your dashboard offers key metrics like drop-off rate, completion rate, call wait time and more, so you can track agent efficiency and check on how to improve your onboarding service. Other accuracy checks involve AI-assisted tools like Facematch and Liveliness, which verify customer authenticity and allow no room for error.

Choosing the right V-KYC platform is just as important as training your agents and employees to get it right. If you are investing in a tool that eases your business process, you will prefer to invest in the best. With V-KYC vendors like Kwik.ID, you are promised all of the above and swift onboarding in just 2 minutes.

Choose wisely!

The regtech start-up witnessed a significant surge in its Video KYC session volumes, with an 85% + completion rate, significantly higher than industry averages, promising each session to be completed in under 2 minutes. In a market full of incumbents, albeit a late entrant, Kwik.ID already works with clients across multiple verticals – Fintech, NBFCs, Banks, Insurance, Lenders, Forex,  and the list goes on. 

MonishSalot, Co-Founder and Chief Product Officerof KwikID said, “Design and technical excellence, and superior performance has led us to reach such a wide audience in a short duration.

We always strive to do better than before and aim to fulfil the needs of today’s businesses and audience by staying relevant to them.”

The platform is expecting a 300%+ growth in daily sessions from November, as most institutions have shifted their customer onboarding tracks online for a seamless, accurate and remote process, and as the businesses open up. 

Adding to Monish’s viewpoint, Abhishek Joshi, Co-founder and Product Manager of KwiK.ID further added, “The pandemic has taken a toll on every aspect of our life and we need to come up with digital solutions to keep going. Kwik.ID Platform will continue to simplify the otherwise tedious process of safe and compliant customer onboarding and customer engagement. In today’s time, every time you get a face to face interaction with a customer, you have to make it count. It is not just about KYC. It’s about a memorable experience as well. ”

Various regulators and industry bodies have started seeing the potential of Video driven customeronboarding and KYC processes. This was only after the Insurance Regulatory and Development Authority (IRDAI), Pension Fund Regulatory and Development Authority (PFRDA) has permitted Video based customer identification process for NPS account opening. As per Frost & Sullivan research, the global regtech market is expected to reach $6.45 billion by 2020.

Video KYC – A Game Changer for the Insurance Market

Following in the footsteps of RBI, the Insurance Regulatory and Development Authority of India, most recently released a draft circular allowing Video KYC for insurance companies, giving many companies and policy buyers relief to do business at ease. The announcement came earlier this month as board regulators strive to ease compliance processes and minimize physical contact, while keeping business moving, ensuring no industry misses out.

With the new guidelines, the insurance sector shifts its KYC operations to a completely paperless approach, thereby doing away with Traditional KYC which had its own limitations. Some of these being:

  • Offline processes of document collection are risky as documents can be tampered with, or misused while changing hands and information maybe leaked
  • Completing the process manually might lead to errors, which often leads to KYC drop-offs because customers aren’t willing to repeatedly pay physical visits. This also lengthens the process of onboarding customers and hampers the overall customer experience, thereby affecting company’s goodwill
  • The turnaround time taking longer leads to higher costs of file processing and hence, higher costs of acquiring customers
  • In smaller cities and rural areas, insurance agents and company outlets are few, with poor access to these facilities. A Video KYC tool makes it convenient for companies to widen their reach across these areas so as to bring in more business while bridging the gap between urban and rural facilities.

As tech takes over and insurance companies are starting to implemenet the Video KYC Onboarding process, here’s how the best Video KYC tools from Kwik.ID can help make a difference:

  • Being 100% RBI compliant, highly accurate, and 100% secure as well, our premium Video KYC tools puts you at no risk of losing or leaking out information
  • Now, the process isn’t just RBI complaint, but 100% IRDAI compliant too, leaving no room for errors
  • Insurance involves money, and that’s something nobody wants to play around with. With our AI-enabled Facematch and Liveliness tools, we’ll ensure you don’t have to. These tools work in real time and match the person on the screen, with the photo on the documents, thereby eliminating the risk of bots
  • With the process lasting for barely 3 minutes and being a smooth sailing one, Video KYC drop-offs are minimum. So you can expect at least an 85% success rate while reaching out to potential customers
  • Making the process easier for smaller towns and rural areas, we at Kwik.ID also offer a low bandwidth mode that lets business continue, anytime, anywhere. Our chat feature and Natural Language feature also enables easy conversation between the authorised agent and the potential customer
  • Moreover, customers are kept well informed and given a guided tour well in advance to make sure all documents are in place and they are prepared, not leaving them overwhelmed during the video KYC process in any way
  • Queueing, routing and scheduling by Kwik.ID’s Video based KYC identification helps streamline processes better as busy customers are kept well informed and need to make themselves available only when asked to, as opposed to Traditional KYC, where multiple physical meetings maybe expected.
  • Built-in OVD verification services are used for instant verification by Regulated Entities

With business being low for a while, this new move by IRDAI gives new impetus to insurance companies to #KeepMoving forward and doing business smoothly with potential policy buyers, while not losing out. Why would they, when all it takes is 3 minutes?

Financial Inclusion and the Potential of Video KYC

Financial-Inclusion-and-the-Potential-of-Video-KYC

Financial inclusion has always been at the heart of India’s economic policy and with the introduction of Video KYC across sectors, we have come one step closer to achieving this very feat. Video-based remote KYC has paved the way for underbanked and unbanked areas in an attempt to provide equal financial access to all. Financial inclusion makes it easy for SMEs, millennials, professionals, entrepreneurs and others to apply for and receive loans, credit cards, and buy insurance policies, now more than ever, with easy Video KYC verification and completion of tedious procedures in minutes. 

Video KYC is especially key to tier 2 and tier 3 cities where bank branches are far and few, but essential banking services remain more imperative. Kwik.ID is designed to ensure that our Video KYC tool reaches even the farthest of rural areas with provisions for a low bandwidth mode and a guided step-by-step processes; all of which we believe bridge the gap between customers and businesses, all across India.

Since its launch, the potential of Video KYC has been immense, and with the lockdown, the market for Video KYC vendors continues to flourish. So far, people stuck indoors resorted to online payments via different avenues, but what about those who didn’t have a bank account? Going physically to the bank and submitting documents was risky because it involved close contact. Luckily for us, just prior to the lockdown, Video based KYC was introduced and adopted by different sectors for opening bank accounts, demat accounts, Forex, online wallets and more, which made business much smoother for many.

In the most recent circular issued by the IRDAI, the regulatory board also permits Video KYC for insurance companies, which proves to be a game-changing move for the sector that for so long, suffered from the lack of customers during the lockdown.

With the introduction of Video KYC for Banks and Aadhar-based KYC, lenders now have access to customer data, with their consent. As per RBI guidelines, banks need to update the KYC details periodically to maintain a record of their account holders. In addition to Video KYC processes carried out while opening an account, account holders are requested to go through a re-KYC and submit the necessary documents, albeit online.

Video KYC proves to be a boon for fin-tech companies too, because owing to the limited manual KYC centers, very few customers thought of tech finance as a viable option, as the process wasn’t streamlined online. There was a 40% drop in manual KYC as compared to digital KYC. Being entirely online, features like OCR, Facematch, Liveliness detection, Geo-tagging are of great use to fintech companies, especially start-ups who want to minimize cost. These features validate the evidence and also rectify inconsistent data, thereby eliminating discrepancies and saving time.

Slowly and steadily, Video KYC has seeped into every sector and every industry, be it finance or otherwise. Digital KYC hasn’t just digitized the process, but accelerated it, as well. The entire process from application to disbursal that would once take up to 10 days, now takes barely a few hours.

India’s powerful digital ecosystem coupled with the potential Video KYC can unleash, are key to the country’s economic progress by driving financial inclusion.

Video KYC -The ‘New Normal’ across Industries

With social distancing becoming the new normal and businesses going completely online, Digital KYC is now at the forefront to onboard customers instantly, while keeping a check on their records and doing what’s best for business.

Having adopted the best video KYC tools available for their business, both financial as well as non-financial companies find it a boon that lets their business move swiftly. With features like OCR, Facematch, geo-tagging, fraud detection, functioning Video KYC at low bandwidth, Video recording and more, businesses are quickly moving to digital KYC. Here’s a look at how this much-needed tool works, or will work across various sectors.

Banking, Financial Services and Insurance

Banks: For every customer who opens an account with a bank, whether demat, current, savings, or any other, RBI mandates a digital KYC for onboarding the customer. Using Video KYC verification helps banks keep a record of each and every customer via their Aadhaar Card, and link it to the corresponding bank account to track transactions. In order to update customer details regularly, banks also use Video KYC for Re-KYC which makes the entire process much simpler and quicker. 

Asset Management Companies: For all Asset Management Companies regulated by the SEBI, Video based KYC identification offers full KYC to minimise the risk of money laundering. The authentication process is swift, precise, and paperless, leading to a reduction in costs as well as onboarding time. AMCs have now started using Video KYC not only for individuals but while onboarding SMEs and other larger enterprises too.

Insurance: Video KYC’s Liveliness Detection, Facematch and personal discussion features, like the ones offered by Kwik.ID are salient for insurance companies where fraud is more likely. These features enhance the experience for clients and reduce digital risk for companies.

Lending: SMEs and Fintechs choose to use Video KYC verification for lending processes to make quick and informed decisions, while also making the lending process faster and smoother for the borrower. Many NBFCs use digital KYC for individual lending too.

Wallets: Online wallets are quickly becoming the top video KYC users. All this while, customers were asked to adopt the traditional means of submitting their Aadhaar manually at a centre. But with Video KYC in the picture, e-wallet onboarding can be done in less than 3 minutes from the comfort of your home.

Non-Financial institutions

Employee Onboarding: For large organisations, especially those with over a 100 employees, choosing the best Video KYC tool is the smartest way to store employee data, so as to transfer salaries and EPF and safeguard the interests of the company incase of any fraud.

Online Alcohol Delivery: With online alcohol delivery becoming the ‘new normal’, sellers have to be extremely cautious that the alcohol isn’t reaching the wrong hands. Here’s where Digital KYC comes into play. Right from age-restriction checks, geo-fencing, and address verification, KYC – platforms like KwikI.D are designed for Regulated Entities, thereby adapting themselves to simpler customer onboarding.

Telecom industry: Something that we’ve all witnessed is getting authenticated via KYC while being issued a new SIM card. With the shift in selling SIM cards online, network providers are gradually moving towards Video KYC for contactless and quick verification.

Rental/shared vehicle economy: While customers have to opt for Video KYC verification to add money to their wallets, transport apps have to go through it too, to register themselves and keep their accounts operational.

Co-working spaces: As entrepreneurs and businessmen have begun investing heavily in co-working spaces, their safety becomes a matter of concern for the property owner. The easiest way to keep a record of all the employees is via a video based KYC identification.

Educational platforms & exams:  While this seems to be in the making, with the pandemic, it won’t be long before schools and colleges use Digital KYC to enrol students, especially for competitive exams where cheating is rampant.

Gaming: Gaming is one of the largest sectors that witness cybersecurity and fraud because there’s plenty of money involved that can be easily tampered with. Luckily, because of Video KYC’s AI integrated Facematch Liveliness and fraud detection tools, like the ones we offer, make it easier to detect and shut down these fraudsters.

At Kwik.ID, we understand the importance of security and the need to constantly evolve, especially while doing business online. As leading video KYC solution providers, we aspire to facilitate easy digital KYC across every sector, big or small.

Call Queues and Scheduling Made Easy With Kwik.ID

At Kwik.ID, we understand the importance of good customer service, so apart from striving to be the best Video KYC solution providers in the industry, we also strive to make the Digital KYC tools smooth and quick-paced. From handheld processes, AI-powered Facematch and Liveliness, to Video KYC at low bandwidth, we offer it all. Among the array of features are our call queue and scheduling feature, which promises 100% efficiency and customer satisfaction.

To onboard Digital KYC customers seamlessly, it is imperative to monitor these call queues consistently and lower the average call queue time to as low as 1 minute. This results in new sales opportunities, goodwill, and encourages brand awareness.

Here’s why queue call management matters if you want to achieve an above 85% completion rate from your video KYC verification:

Low Call Abandonment Rates: The longer your potential customer is kept waiting, the higher the chances of him dropping off from your business entirely and choosing a competitor. Moreover, by reducing call abandonment rates, your business can handle a higher volume of calls.

2. High First-Call Rates: Attending to a customer on the first call indicates that your business is a good service provider.

3. Minimised Costs: When you schedule a digital KYC session call with a potential customer, you reduce the hold time to free up the toll-free lines and receive more calls.

Sometimes, these rates tend to be low and costs aren’t minimised enough, leading to your Video KYC verification tool not working effectively enough. This can happen because of the following reasons:

1. Outdated Technology: One of our top priorities at Kwik.ID is to make our Video KYC tools compatible with every Android and iOS device, while offering Video KYC at low bandwidth. While outdated technology is definitely something that can lead to call drops even after queueing and scheduling, we promise a smooth process by offering comprehensive customer information before agents answer the call.

2. Under-staffing: Inspite of offering a host of features, even the best video KYC tool is nothing without enough agents who’ll handle the calls. Your calls might keep piling up and there’d be nobody around to respond to them.

3. Long Handling Times: A call attended to might take longer than expected because the agent isn’t cooperating with the caller or interrupting the caller.

With Kwik.ID’s video KYC verification, rest assured these problems won’t come into play with our carefully segmented call queues and scheduling, to maximise your success rate to over 85%. Our process begins by segregating the queues into two – standard queue and priority queue. Every potential customer is first put into the standard queue by default before they are assigned an agent. Based on the age, if the customer is a senior citizen, and/or based on location if a customer belongs to a rural area, he is placed in the priority queue. Also, in case a customer’s call is disconnected by an agent once or an agent is unable to respond to the customer’s request within the threshold wait time, he is placed in the priority queue. This queue exists to ensure that the applicant is served at priority and does not have to wait with another applicant again. Further, it eases the process for customers and helps them at each step, if they aren’t technologically equipped or are functioning on low bandwidth mode. The priority queue is checked before checking the standard queue. After assigning all the priority customers to agents, we then proceed to the standard queue.

For the best digital KYC call queueing and scheduling practices, we suggest the following:

1. Call Management: Keep call wait time shorter than 2 minutes to avoid call drops.

2. Queue Management: Monitor LIVE data from our dashboard

3. Funnel Management: Study what stage of the call customers are dropping off at, so you can identify the problem and rectify it instantly

4. Agent Management: Track your agents’ data carefully so you can solve any issues with their performance

Kwik.ID’s queueing and scheduling of call functionality, coupled with live dashboards for admin monitoring, makes Kwik.ID one of the best Video KYC tool for your business.

Monitoring and Evaluating your Video KYC Sessions

When you invest in a new tool to speed up your business, you most certainly want to analyse your return-on-investment over a period of time. No matter how big or small a business is, you want every penny’s worth, and at Kwik.ID that’s what we want too – to help you get your money’s worth.

This is imperative, especially when you need to study the company’s continuous performance, efficiency and effectiveness of the solution. Let us help you with that.

Along with umpteen benefits that our tool offers, our real-time dashboard plays an integral role in gauging your Video KYC success. The Kwik.ID dashboard offers a range of statistics and measures for you to improve your performance and get the best out of Video KYC.

Some of its features include:

  1. Real-Time Statistics – No matter when you log in, you’ll see an updated data dashboard that’ll give you an overall insight on historic and live sessions details and help you analyse areas of improvement. Statistics like Video KYC sessions, requests rejected, accepted, and approved, along with a graph of sessions completed, will help make decisions for future Video KYC sessions.
  • Anytime, Anywhere – This real-time data dashboard is available at all hours, all year round. Additionally, being a low bandwidth platform, you can enjoy Video KYC at low bandwith on the go.
  • AI-powered – Be it our Facematch and Liveliness feature, or data driven analytics, each and every step in Video KYC verification is Artificial Intelligence reliant. Techniques like automated data extraction, machine learning, and streamlining complex processes, all rely on Artificial Intelligence, which gives you a clear picture.
  • Customisation – Kwik.ID’s Video KYC dashboard offers you the option to choose the types of charts you want to focus on and presents you with data based on your preferences.

All about AI based Facematch & Liveliness Detection

As technology seems to be taking over the world, businesses rely heavily on Artificial Intelligence (AI), for almost every aspect of work. AI has seeped not only into your personal life, but also your professional life – from handling everyday tasks, aiding critical problem solving, onboarding customers seamlessly, and improving the overall customer experience.

With Kwik.ID’s Video KYC verification, onboarding customers is certainly made easy, but what makes it trustworthy are the Facematch and Liveliness tools that detect frauds, and prevent impersonation or identity theft of any sort. With the recent advances in AI and deep learning technology, face recognition accuracy has significantly increased.

Facematch and Liveliness are probably the most essential security features which ensure that the user is authentic and there is no foul play involved. High-speed and extremely accurate face recognition technology is based on convolutional neural networks of the latest architecture and most progressive methods of training. The algorithm is based on the neural network and a machine learning approach, unlike “traditional” algorithms based on mathematical model. While active 3D techniques detect movements like eye-blinking and facial movements, passive 3D uses internal algorithms to detect frauds, together making spoofing difficult for the user.

Facematch and Liveliness tools have been pathbreaking innovations in recent times, that facilitate easy and hassle-free business no matter where you or your customers are.

It is no surprise then that so many industries and sectors choose a Video KYC process over a traditional KYC, to ensure that their onboarding process is 100% secure and smooth.

Apart from just adopting Video KYC, here are some industries/sectors that have begun transforming with these tools:

  • Banking: For the banking sector, customer security and fraud prevention is of utmost importance. Facial recognition allows users to log in securely from the mobile banking apps.
  • Finance and Fintech: Financial institutions opt for facial recognition and liveliness tools for instant loans or users making regular payments.
  • Hospitality: Facial recognition is a preferred choice for verifying and authorising guests, especially at check-in.
  • Marketing: The Facematch algorithm helps you analyse your customers’ gender and age and allows you to evaluate your marketing strategy.
  • Trading platforms and exchanges: Facematch and liveness tools can be integrated into the platforms for distant account registration and verification of the account owner.

Other similar fields that choose Kwik.ID’s video KYC for its automated AI tools include insurance companies, brokerages, e-wallets, and NBFCs too.

At Kwik.ID, your data security and privacy have always been our top priority, therefore adopting these AI-powered tools for our instant Video KYC process was a pre-requisite.
