("Artilium" or the "Company")
Artilium selects Mitek's Identity Solutions software
to streamline mandatory SIM Card Registration
Artilium (LSE/AIM: ARTA), the AIM quoted provider of innovative
telecommunications software, announces a preferred partnership with
Mitek (NASQAQ: MITK), a global leader in mobile capture and
identity verification software, to offer identity solutions to the
telecoms market. Artilium has integrated Mitek's identity software
to streamline the consumer registration process for prepaid mobile
phone SIM cards to meet the European legal requirements.
As a MVNO/MVNE provider, Artilium introduced the KYC ("Know Your
Customer") Solution for secure and easy identification and
authentication of mobile prepaid customers. Mitek's identity
products simplify the process consumers must undertake to register
a pre-paid mobile phone or SIM card with a telecom services
provider. Mitek's technology expedites the application process with
data pre-fill while enabling identity verification for regulatory
compliance.
Bart Weijermars, Chief Executive of Artilium said: "Although
some European citizens have electronic IDs, the clear majority
still prefer to use their traditional, physical ID documents. New
anti-terrorism laws forbid anonymous prepaid mobile phones and many
of our telecom customers are concerned about losing customers if
the registration process is too cumbersome. Mitek offers an elegant
solution that makes the registration process incredibly simple for
consumers, enabling them to use their physical documents for
digital registration and ID verification."
James DeBello, Chairman and CEO, Mitek added: "Mandatory SIM
card registration regulations are a direct response to the use of
pre-paid phones to commit acts of terrorism. Our products enable
Artilium to let legitimate customers easily register with mobile
services, which is key to their expansion into new markets
throughout Europe as more countries pass similar laws for SIM card
registration."
