Everi’s Digital CashClub Wallet® Technology will leverage Prove’s identity solutions for more intuitive, secure, and seamless gaming experiences
NEW YORK, October 6, 2022 - Prove Identity, Inc. (“Prove”), the leader in digital identity, today announced that Everi Payments Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Everi Holdings Inc. (NYSE: EVRI), has selected Prove as one of its solution providers for identity verification services. With industry-leading payment solutions, Everi empowers casino operators to successfully deliver on all aspects of the emerging mobile ecosystem, including funding for on-premise gaming devices, payments at point-of-sale machines, and providing customers multiple options to access funds while on the casino floor.
Everi CashClub Wallet® users will utilize Prove’s Trust Score™ to secure their customer experiences across a number of different scenarios ranging from digital onboarding to digital account servicing and ongoing authentication. Trust Score is a real-time measure of phone number reputation that can be leveraged for identity verification and authentication purposes and passively analyzes behavioral and cryptographic authentication signals from authoritative sources at the time of a potential transaction to mitigate fraud such as SIM swap and other account takeover schemes.
Prove’s Identity™ solution will validate consumer-provided personal identity information and confirm phone number ownership using authoritative data, including device and phone number data while maintaining privacy for all customers. The tool will allow Everi to further reduce bad actors and fraudulent accounts and reduce user friction throughout the customer lifecycle. Proprietary reason codes are also available to offer additional insight into risk.
