HooYu partners with Glint to verify customer identity

 

Identity confirmation provider HooYu has partnered with Glint to verify customer identity and maximize the speed and success rate for customers wanting to open an account.

Glint is a financial instrument and through its online app users are able to load money into their account and then convert that to gold. They can then use their Glint Mastercard to make everyday purchases instantly using gold as money.

HooYu technology will be deployed during the account opening process to prove that customers are who they say they are and ensure compliance with Anti Money Laundering regulations. According to the announcement, Glint selected HooYu due to a unique blend of identity technologies in the HooYu identity platform.

“Glint is a truly innovative financial instrument and in HooYu they have partnered with a truly innovative identity confirmation service,” commented David Pope, marketing director at HooYu. “HooYu is the first identity platform to combine and blend new identity technologies such as digital footprint analysis, online ID document validation and facial biometrics with traditional database checks and PEPS and Sanctions screening.”
