Global Expansion of Boku Identity
Boku Inc (AIM: BOKU), the world's leading independent carrier
commerce and identity verification company, is pleased to announce
a global expansion of Boku Identity, extending its identity
verification capabilities to over 60 countries by the end of 2019.
Boku Identity is trusted by leading Fortune 500 companies,
including PayPal and Western Union, and has already performed over
one billion user authentications across North America, Western
Europe, and Asia.
Boku Identity is powered by the Boku Platform, which aggregates
and harmonizes mobile network operator systems across 58 countries
worldwide. By combining the Boku Platform with the identity
verification and authentication capabilities from recently acquired
Danal Inc., Boku Identity helps global enterprises across multiple
industries effectively reduce identity fraud, drive conversions,
ensure compliance, and deliver a superior customer experience.
As the global digital economy continues to shift towards a
mobile-first world, the need for companies to provide their users
with a frictionless authentication experience has become a key
pre-requisite to successfully scale their businesses. Boku
Identity's privacy-by-design and tokenized identity architecture
enables global businesses to onboard and service their customers
worldwide while maintaining security and user privacy.
Jon Prideaux, CEO, Boku Inc, commented: "With Boku Identity's
global expansion, Boku continues its mission of simplifying mobile
interactions between people and businesses worldwide. We have
carefully designed Boku Identity to provide companies flexibility
in their authentication processes, empowering them with control and
transparency so they never have to compromise between the security
of their business operations and delivering an exceptional customer
experience."
Boku Identity is currently live in the United States and the
United Kingdom, with identity verification capabilities in 42
markets and plans to extend verification coverage to more than 20
additional markets by the end of 2019.
