Introducing the online identity verification service “LIQUID eKYC” to the payment service “Digital Wallet”
~Supports identity verification and anti-social checks required for person-to-person remittances, etc.~
……
Liquid Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Chuo-ku, Tokyo, Representative Director: Takaoki Hasegawa), a member of the ELEMENTS Group, has recently announced the launch of a payment service operated by Digital Fintech Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Shibuya-ku, Tokyo, Representative Director: Masaaki Kikuchi). We will introduce “LIQUID eKYC”, an online identity verification service, to “Digital Wallet”.
“Digital Wallet” is a service that allows you to collect points and rewards accumulated from various services such as various point services and video distribution as R (Real) and receive them in cash or advantageous gift certificates. After acquiring the funds transfer business certification, we plan to expand the scope of our services, including digital payroll payments and person-to-person remittances. Digital Wallet users will use LIQUID eKYC to verify their identity when making remittances, purchasing second-hand goods, etc., and will verify their identity in a manner that complies with various laws, including the Criminal Proceeds Act. Specifically, the person’s identity is verified by using a smartphone to take a picture of the person’s appearance (face) and a photo identification document such as a driver’s license or My Number card (Article 6, Paragraph 1, Item 1, E) of the Criminal Proceeds Act Enforcement Regulations. , We also handle anti-social and anti-market checks based on identity
verification information.
In the future, we plan to introduce an identity verification method that utilizes public personal authentication using the electronic certificate installed in the IC chip of the My Number Card.
Additionally, “LIQUID eKYC” will be used to verify the identity of corporate companies using “digital wallets.”
