The future of

identity technology

Welcome to the world of Contactable, an Integrated Identity Platform (IIP) that revolutionizes digital identity, onboarding, and Know Your Customer (KYC) processes.

How Contactable enables onboarding?

Contactable enables the journey of digital identity, onboarding and KYC processes.

We understand the power of Integrated Identity Platforms (IIP) that cater to your specific needs, eliminating the hassle of ownership and integration complications.

Gone are the days of dealing with complex licenses and individual software installations.

Just as you use platforms like Uber or Spotify for on-demand transport and music without owning the underlying assets, Contactable offers a similar solution for digital identity, onboarding, and KYC processes.

Our platform automates and streamlines the verification of prospective clients, enabling businesses to confidently verify customer credentials within seconds.

Whether it’s a car purchase, a phone contract, or opening a new account, Contactable’s integrated processes allow businesses to efficiently verify customer information, sometimes requiring as little as a name and ID number.

Contactable takes care of the hard work of identifying, testing, and deploying integrations with various bureaus, agencies, and suppliers responsible for verifying person identities.

Digital Identity Proofing

By 2023, 75% of organizations will be using a single vendor with strong identity orchestration capabilities and connections to many other third parties for identity proofing and affirmation, which is an increase from fewer than 15% today

Biometrics

Traditional methods of identity proofing using personally identifiable information (PII) is no longer adequate due to the numerous data breaches of such sensitive information.

Verifying previous addresses, phone numbers and mother’s maiden names is outdated and insufficient. Layering biometrics on top of specific types of PII verification and government issued IDs can dramatically improve user identity assurance. Contactable utilises numerous biometrics to deliver this assurance:

Palm Vein Biometrics

Palm vein biometrics is widely believed to be the best No Touch biometric authentication method.

Facial Recognition

A facial recognition system uses biometrics to map facial features from a photograph or video.

Liveness

Liveness technology prevents intruders from breaching biometric authentication systems identifying presentation attacks or fraud.

Voice Biometrics

Voice biometrics uses a person’s natural voice pattern as a password for authenticating access to services.

Solving Industry Identity Challenges

Biometric Identity Proofing is integral for organisations that are required to build trust with their customers, sell their products and services and be compliant whilst doing so. Contactable has been engaged across numerous industries to leverage our Digital Identity experience and build frictionless customer-centric solutions for our clients.

Each solution has to deal with poor data quality from customers, protection of the customers’ identity and never compromise on risk, reputation or security.

The opportunity to transact digitally with customers is no longer restricted to the financial services sector – all industries have the opportunity to transform their business model and offering.

PUBLIC SECTOR

Customer-centric service delivery made easy with the creation of a Digital Citizen relationship. Imagine if your local and national government interacted with you in the same way you interact with your bank or local mobile phone provider. After the establishing of a digital relationship and the addition of a biometric, the opportunities for future services are endless.

RETAIL

The shift to online retail is obvious. Expand your product range by establishing a trusted, secure digital identity relationship with your customer and ensure compliance with regulatory requirements.

FINANCIAL SERVICES AND INSURANCE

Customer identification is at the centre of almost all financial services processes. Compliance with regulations, internal risk requirements and cross-selling opportunities are core to your success. Eliminate the manual back-office activity and put the processes in the hand of your customer. Open bank accounts with an end-to-end digital customer journey.

ONLINE GAMING
More and more regulated gaming is moving to online. These platforms are unfortunately vulnerable to criminal activity. Compliance with regulation is important to maintain the integrity of your platform. Opportunities exist to allow the customer to maintain their online anonymity whilst remaining compliant.
TELECOMMUNICATIONS

Telecommunication companies are expanding their product range and adding new offerings to customers such as mobile money, insurance and other retail products. Central to this is the digital identity and the ability to federate the expanded offering across one identity relationship. Compliance with FICA and RICA is obligatory and offering customers a self-service is a ticket to the game.

MOTOR DEALERSHIPS

Motor dealerships are accountable institutions and required to comply with FICA. Customers can be pre-screened for creditworthiness and vehicle affordability. Frictionless onboarding and approval of financial and insurance offering followed by digital signing of contracts.

HEALTHCARE

Onboard patients in the same way financial institutions and retailers onboard customers. Attach biometrics to the identity and manage patient records securely, remotely and with easy integration to medical aid schemes.

BLOCKCHAIN SOLUTIONS

Digital identities are becoming central components of many blockchain solutions. Especially if individuals are required to be connected to devices or products in the blockchain ecosystem.
