SAN DIEGO and LONDON, April 18, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Mitek (NASDAQ:MITK) (www.miteksystems.com), a global leader in mobile capture and identity verification software solutions, today announced that a leading global financial services firm has selected its Mobile Verify® and Mobile Fill® solutions to speed up and secure the mobile account opening process for its wealth management accounts.
"Mobile Fill and Mobile Verify provide an ideal solution for companies that need to be certain of a customer's identity in the mobile channel," said Sarah Clark, General Manager, Identity Solutions, Mitek. "While Mobile Fill makes onboarding a snap, Mobile Verify reduces the possibility of a criminal fraudulently accessing or creating accounts."
