Why Veriff

The gaming universe is constantly evolving, throwing up huge opportunities but also significant challenges. Partnering with a technology provider who understands the issues you face – and has the solutions to address them – could be the power-up you need to reach the next level.

As a growing business in the world of gaming, you face a particular set of issues. You need to stop underage users accessing your age-restricted content. You need to comply with global privacy requirements and defend against hacking and account takeover, keeping your users’ personal information and their virtual assets secure.

With so much competition out there, cybersecurity is becoming a major value proposition and differentiator in the gaming industry. Those companies able to demonstrate robust security are far more likely to keep users loyal.

You need to block multi-accounting, countering the cheating, bullying and harassment that can damage your reputation and drive players away from your gaming environment. And you need to do all this while providing a frictionless user experience that maximizes conversions and minimizes dropout.

At the heart of all these issues is the need for effective identity verification (IDV). However, creating an in-house solution to IDV is labor intensive, extremely costly, and distracts companies from doing what they do best — creating games for players across the world. Fortunately, there is an alternative.

An effective, multi-faceted solution can provide you with highly effective age verification and account security while stopping malicious elements in their tracks. And it can do all this while ensuring the slick UI gamers expect. As you’ll hear from our clients, the result can be clearly seen in much higher conversion rates and significantly better retention. Ultimately, that’s a win- win for your customers and your business.
