Yoti, Digidentity strike deals to support businesses’ background checks

Britton Management claims to be Canada’s first background screening company, with almost 50 years in operation. The company has integrated Yoti’s identity verification into its platform.

Under the deal, Yoti will verify the authenticity of identity documents, and match the document photos with applicants’ selfies.

“Digital identity checks offer benefits to candidates and employers,” says Yoti Chief Commercial Officer John Abbott. “They are quicker, more convenient, and support remote working practices – which have become the norm for many. With less paperwork, stronger security and a better recruitment experience, the benefits of digital identity verification are clear.”

The deal supports remote and hybrid working, speeds up onboarding processes and cuts recruitment times, according to the announcement.

Yoti and its partner the Post Office are certified for background checks in the UK for work and other purposes under the Digital Identity and Attributes Trust Framework.

Digidentity is certified as an Identity Service Provider under the UK’s DIATF.

Mvine is also launching a product for the UK B2B market, called MvineID, to deliver fast and affordable ID verification checks, according to the announcement. Mvine business customers can carry out Right to Work, Right to Rent and Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) checks through Digidentity.

“Mvine and Digidentity partnering together makes the new MvineID proposition very exciting for new and existing customers, not just because of the affordability but also because of the ease to set up and run,” Mvine Limited Director Frank Joshi. “It makes digital identity verification services available securely at pace to all business customers regardless of their company size or number of IDV checks they need to perform.”
