Boku streamlines & secures online transactions in
Germany
Boku Inc (AIM: BOKU), a leading global provider of mobile
payment and identity solutions, is pleased to announce that Boku
Identity has launched its Verify and Authenticate solutions in
Germany, with both solutions integrated with O2, Telekom
Deutschland, and Vodafone. Now, 120 million German mobile
subscribers will have access to more seamless and secure digital
account creation and transactions.
The launch in Germany increases Boku's global coverage for
Verify and Authenticate to 20 countries. Leading global companies
including banks and other financial services companies, social
networks, marketplaces and government agencies work with Boku to
enhance their digital customer experience while ensuring
world-class security for their users.
Verify uses signals from mobile operators to streamline digital
customer onboarding while preventing identity theft, money
laundering, and social fraud.
Authenticate uses mobile operator SIM-based authentication to
secure digital account access without SMS one-time passwords,
delivering greater security in a fraction of the time. Authenticate
features SIM Swap detection to eliminate this fraud vector quickly
and easily.
With increasing digital transformation and swift competition for
consumers, these solutions give digital service providers a
competitive edge. Boku's mobile identity suite protects consumers
from fraud while maintaining personal privacy, fully compliant with
GDPR regulations.
Stuart Neal, General Manager for Identity, Boku, commented: "We
are honoured to partner with Deutsche Telekom, O2 and Vodafone to
bring German businesses and consumers better, safer online
experiences. Today, consumers expect seamless and secure online
experiences, and Boku along with our partners make this
possible."
