The New API Interface to The VoiceTransact Trust Centre Network is an Industry
First
LONDON--(Business Wire)--
Voice Commerce, the innovative financial services group, today announced the
launch of its VoiceTransact Application Programming Interface (API) that allows
organisations to quickly and easily access the company`s VoiceTransact Trust
Centres. This allows organisations, such as banks, telecommunications operators
and businesses that require identity and verification, with optional payment
processing, to evaluate and verify the benefits to their own customers of using
voice-signature authentication. The API enables the Voice Transact Services to
be integrated into any business process and during a free two week trial,
customers can evaluate the time and cost savings that the use of voice-signature
based identity authentication through VoiceTransact can bring.
The VoiceTransact Trust Centre is Voice Commerce`s core operating platform and
network that provides voice-based identification, verification and payment
services. The Trust Centre stores voice signatures that enable an individual`s
identity to be validated and authenticated in real time anywhere using any type
of telephone device. Not only is it the only trust centre in the world to be
fully certified but it is also the only one that is connected to payment and
transaction services that enables voice signature enabled consumers to make
payments, either for e-commerce or as a mobile payment .
Voice Commerce is offering businesses the opportunity to use the Voice Transact
platform and integrate it into their existing business using a two week licence.
It does not require any additional investment in systems and the interface is
pre-integrated with the VISA, MasterCard and American Express payment networks.
As such, VoiceTransact customers will be able to rapidly build their own
identity and verification or identity verification and payment system into their
business using a system that ensures global interoperability standards.
Nick Ogden, CEO of the Voice Commerce Group, said: "Identity security and
payment fraud remain two of the biggest concerns facing businesses and consumers
today. Our phenomenal success in the past year has already shown that
voice-based authentication is now emerging as the new global standard for making
secure payment and identity authentication. Our selection as a finalist at the
ID World awards in Milan this week, the Oscars of the Identity Verification
Industry, underline the rapidly growing acknowledgement that our Voice Transact
network is leading in the creation of industry adoption and standards in the use
of voice biometrically based identity, verification and payment systems
worldwide. By simplifying access to the VoiceTransact Trust Centre and allowing
organisations to trial voice-based authentication within their processes for two
weeks, Voice Commerce will be able to clearly demonstrate the security, cost and
customer service benefits that voice-based authentication brings."
