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?

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.

How to Achieve a Video KYC Completion Rate of Over 85%?

The world’s going digital with Video KYC verification to onboard customers instantly, and so are you, because you want what’s best for your business. But just as you’re closing the deal with a potential customer you lose connectivity and, in the bargain, lose your customer, too. That’s something you don’t have to worry about if you opt for Kwik.ID as your Video KYC solution providers.

Low bandwidth is just one of the many reasons why your business may not achieve its desired VKYC completion rate. Other factors include:

  • Customers being ill-prepared with insufficient documents before the Video KYC session.
  • Low lighting, which prevents the potential customer from being clearly detected by our Face Recognition Tool.
  • Customers not being tech-savvy enough.

There’s more to the list, but with Kwik.ID’s Video KYC solution one can be sure these hiccups don’t persist, and you achieve a completion rate of over 85% while onboarding customers in just 3 minutes. Every obstacle that lowers your completion rate is eliminated with our tools. 

  • Pre-session Guidance: Our tutorials make it easy for your customers to grasp the process better and stay prepared, well in advance, with the necessary official verification documents.
  • Low Bandwidth Support: One of the primary reasons for a poor Video KYC completion rate is low bandwidth, but with Kwik.ID you will enjoy all the benefits of Video KYC at low bandwith. In case the agent or the customer is located in an erratic network area, this feature will keep the session moving. Our minimum bandwidth requirement is also as low as 176 kbps. 
  • HD Quality: Our Facematch and Liveliness Tools are designed to adjust to low bandwidth, so no matter how poor the internet connection is, the data detected and captured is always HD quality.
  • Lighting Alert: Poor lighting is another major concern that leads to a drop in the completion rate. Before the session begins, our Light Detection tool studies the lighting around you and the customer and notifies you to move to a well-lit area so that the session can be swift and smooth. 
  • Inclusive Platform: At Kwik.ID, we push the envelope and endeavour to create an inclusive platform. To eliminate any language barrier and/or technical issues our Video KYC platform provides visual cues and assertive measures to guide with the process, so as to make it quick and intuitive. Our textual chat option also eliminates any linguistic issues that the agent or customer might face.
  • Tech Support: Customers who aren’t tech-savvy might shy away midway through a session, leading to a drop in the completion rate. To overcome this, our assisted Video KYC allows the customer to screen-share with the agent, requesting guidance for complex processes like Aadhaar XML Generation. 
  • Third-Party Elimination: Kwik.ID Video KYC’s straightforward interface connects the potential customer to an assigned agent with a quick click of a link, unlike many others that necessitate the need for an external app to carry out the session. You don’t need an app at all to do the Video KYC using Kwik.ID.

  • Being 100% RBI Compliant.
