Understanding Digital IDs
A Digital ID is an electronic credential that authenticates an individual's identity. Frequently stored in a digital wallet on a smartphone, these credentials are essential for modern online transactions. By incorporating Digital IDs into onboarding workflows, organizations are better equipped to handle the growing demand for secure and reliable identification methods.

2. Speeding Up Customer Onboarding
With Digital IDs, users can verify their identities instantly, utilizing credentials they already possess. This leads to improved conversion rates and a significant reduction in drop-off rates during the onboarding process.
