As part of our growth efforts, we’re on a mission to provide African digital businesses with the world-class tools they need to secure their platforms from fraud, protect their customers from scammers, and comply with ever-changing AML and KYC regulations.

The Identitypass team is excited to be one of the first African verification platforms to officially launch a plugin that allows you to integrate our verification widget directly with WordPress, the world’s most popular website builder. WordPress powers over 500 of the top 10 million online websites built daily and offers businesses the professional tools they need to market and sell their products and services online.

Previously, African businesses used complicated workarounds to integrate Identitypass solutions into their WordPress accounts. Now, with the new WordPress plugin, companies can securely verify customers’ identities from anywhere in the world while remaining compliant on their WordPress-enabled websites.

Ascertain Identities Online with your WordPress Website

WordPress, at its core, is the simplest and most popular way to create your website or blog; WordPress likely powers more than one in every four websites you visit. The incredible benefit of using WordPress is that it provides businesses of all sizes with the tools they need to build professional websites without coding knowledge.

Businesses can start from scratch or choose from over 500 designer-made templates with WordPress’s innovative drag-and-drop website builder to create a website that resonates with their brands. WordPress also has many ready-to-use solutions, depending on your business’s nature.

The Identitypass checkout widget, on the other hand, is one of those great products facilitating simplicity for verification checks. The identity pass widget is a function that enables you to verify users on your page or website. In simple terms, you are using our verification APIs as integration on your website for verifying your customers/users’ identities or other businesses.

This feature supports mobile and web devices and does not require you to come to our page for verification purposes; you now have a simplified process of verifying your users and relieving you of all onboarding bottlenecks.

By integrating with the WordPress plugin, existing and new Identitypass customers can now build forms and verify their customers’ identities while on the go with their WordPress website; here are the features we’ve implemented to make this as easy as possible:

• Build Form via Identitypass Checker Widget: The Identitypass checker widget is a product that allows you to create forms that you will use to collect information to verify your customers’ identities. You can send these forms to your customers, collect their data, and accurately verify their real identities using the information/unique identifiers they provide.
• Seamless integration: With this plugin, you can quickly integrate the checkout widget into any WordPress page or post. After successful verification, you can accept verification data directly on your website/app.
• Simple Customization: The form builder allows you to easily add and filter all of the necessary information/parameters you require from your customers, such as their names, date of birth, and other unique identifiers information you need from them to carry out your onboarding process. With the customized form, you can get to know your users better and verify new users at the point of onboarding and re-onboarding for existing customers.
• Automated Face Match: Match/compare users’ basic information with their faces to determine each user’s confidence score. This will ultimately protect your business platform and customers from fraudsters’ ever-increasing activities.

In Conclusion:

Identitypass is constantly improving the security and compliance levels of all African digital businesses, and we are developing tools to help you win. We are excited to introduce the WordPress plugin, allowing our potential customers to use our checkout verification widget on their WordPress websites.

We have more updates in the pipeline for the plugin, such as a dashboard overview for our customers to view their verification status and details associated with each verification without returning to our website dashboard to check the verification status every time.

We are excited about the great things this new product will enable digital businesses like yours to accomplish, and we can’t wait to see you succeed with Identitypass.
