Balance security and usability by using mobile phone numbers as your primary identifier
Internet access is increasingly mobile-first. Mobile phone numbers are the most intuitive, convenient, and private identifier.
SIM cards and phone numbers are uniquely linked, which allows you to confidently bind a phone number to an app and device.
Unlike emails, phone numbers can be verified in real time, within your app, with complete confidence in a binary yes/no answer.
Phone numbers verified through SIM possession are protected by the same hardware-grade security as chip + PIN cards.
Whether genuine or ‘throwaway’ there's no means to ensure an email is an expected identity.
Although secure, biometrics such as facial scans are expensive and not accessible to all.
Gathering needless PII just to ensure a real user, is cumbersome and racks up your data risks.
tru.ID verifies mobile numbers directly with the network — only real identities get through.
Possession of a SIM card as the accompanying credential ensures zero false positives.
Real-time checks to authorise user action as it happens — or continuously, with secure session-binding.
Only a network-connected mobile device, with an active SIM will pass the test.
