Trending...

SAN JOSE, Calif. ~ Zumigo, Inc., a leader in mobile identity authentication, has seen record growth since launching the privacy compliant zero knowledge Zumigo Assure Identity platform in 2021 and Zumigo deRiskify in 2022. The company has experienced 100% growth in all aspects of its business, including number of mobile identity verification transactions, number of mobile operators and users supported globally, number of employees supporting the business, and most importantly its financial metrics.

The surge in sales is attributed to the wide-spread consumer adoption of using mobile numbers as a unique identifier when interacting with businesses online. In today's mobile-first environment, where mobile devices are often used to access digital accounts via the mobile web browser and app, ensuring that the mobile number and associated identity belongs to the actual user is essential for preventing online fraud.

Chirag Bakshi, CEO of Zumigo said "We are at the forefront of preventing the risk of fraudulent mobile identity use. We have seen a surging demand for our solutions because the number of online activities and transactions are growing rapidly, resulting in rampant fraud and identity theft. Businesses and operators select us for real-time digital identity intelligence to prevent fraud and reduce false positives."

The Zumigo platform leverages real-time mobile account information and a unique identity network for Know Your Customer (KYC) verification and risk assessment, including preventing mobile hijacking. Businesses are instantly presented with a trust score of the user based on fraud and risk indicators during account origination and log-in. With this score, businesses can decide whether to approve a new credit card application, fulfill an online transaction or open a new online user account.
