By 8

Independent financial advisory deVere Group has announced the launch of an onboarding verification app, Ident Me. The app is expected to offer a secure identity verification system and an alternative to traditional customer onboarding. According to the company, the Ident Me app consists of a three-step process, including the requirement for proof of identity, the capture of documents and liveness test that needs a live selfie for verification. The app will enable clients to access and benefit from deVere’s suite of FinTech apps.

The founder and CEO of deVere Group, Nigel Green, commented, “We’re in an exciting new world. In recent months, the future has happened faster. There have been major shifts in the way we live, work, and manage our finances. Much of this is being driven by digital technologies, and our financial lives are no exception. There’s soaring global demand for fintech [financial technology], and it’s clear it is going to become an increasingly dominant part of our lives moving forward. Indeed, fintech is already the ‘new normal’ as we increasingly insist on immediate, on-the-go, 24/7 access to, use and management of our money. We demand personalised, on-demand services and lower costs.”

deVere’s apps include deVere Vault – a global e-money currency app and multi-currency prepaid card, deVere Crypto- a cryptocurrency app to store, transfer and exchange major cryptocurrencies, including Bitcoin, deVere Core- an app that allows clients to monitor their investments in real-time keeping them informed with news and events that impact investor returns and deVere Catalyst, a low-cost investment and savings app that offers globally diversified funds.

He continued, “Against this backdrop of growing demand, we decided that we needed to make the set-up process of onboarding to use our fintech apps as quick, easy and secure as possible.
“Ident Me is a hassle-free, simple and safe way for clients to provide identity verification for themselves via a KYC (Know Your Client) form.”
