Global Identity Expansion
Boku extends Identity connections to form world's largest
network for phone verification signals
Boku Inc (AIM: BOKU), the world's leading independent carrier
commerce company, is pleased to provide an update to its global
coverage for mobile identity services as Boku now offers mobile
identity verification capabilities in more than 50 countries.
Through direct connections to mobile network operators ("MNOs"),
including all UK MNOs supplemented by indirect connections via
authoritative and trusted third parties, Boku can now offer
Identity services from over 200 carriers covering 51 countries,
including 34 countries in Europe, the Middle East and Africa , nine
in the Americas and eight in the Asia-Pacific region. This
demonstrates the significant progress that has been made to
position Boku as the provider with the widest reach of phone
verification services globally. When Boku's Identity business was
formed through the acquisition of Danal Inc on 1 January 2019,
services were only provided in three countries; the USA, Canada and
the UK.
The mobile verification capabilities provided by Boku will help
some of the world's largest companies to seamlessly verify good
customers via their mobile device and reduce the negative impacts
caused by fraudsters through social engineering.
Stuart Neal, Chief Business Officer of Boku Identity, commented,
"As we have previously stated, Boku has ambitions to build a truly
global Identity business. With this goal in mind, the Company has
been working hard behind the scenes to add significant further
international coverage to our Identity network, adding more
connectivity in more countries for more products. Boku can now
provide the simple and effective solutions our customers require to
the global problems created by mobile identity fraud and social
engineering in 51 countries. We intend to continue building this
global network and adding new customers for our services."
