Sharing economy

How it works

Why digital trust is critical for sustainability in the sharing economy

The sharing economy is reliant on peer-to-peer (P2P) transactions and trusting strangers while providing or sharing access to goods and services. The companies that facilitate these interactions online in the sharing economy or through mobile apps provide low-cost access and convenience, but their biggest responsibility is security and safety for their customers. Identity verification creates customer confidence and trust, and prevents fraud and safety issues

See it in action

Transportation & delivery

Transportation companies in the sharing economy satisfy consumers transportation demands and delivery wants, while providing an arguably better user experience than traditional means. To assure the safety and reliability, drivers must be vetted and their identities verified

Consumer goods

Companies operating consumer goods platforms allow users to buy and sell used or new items through their interface, and have the goods shipped directly to their home. Verifying buyers and sellers during the economic activity is critical to assure the sellers are sending and the buyers are paying

Professional and personal services

Skilled professionals and freelancers offer their trade skills, talent and expertise through these efficient and secure online platforms. Workers that provide special skills, certifications, or training also need to be verified and authenticated prior to work being started

Peer-to-peer sharing

Groups and individuals who underutilized resources they own provide short term rentals of houses and apartments, rooms, cars, boats, parking spaces, and even pools. Because of regulatory uncertainty, verifying users of these digital platforms on both sides is critical to assure safety and legitimacy
