Ipsidy and Intercredit Bank Pilot for CardLok™

LONG BEACH, New York and MIAMI, Florida, November 15, 2017 /PRNewswire/ --

Ipsidy Inc. (http://www.ipsidy.com) (OTC: IDGS), (formerly known as ID Global Solutions Corporation), a provider of secure, biometric identification, identity management and electronic transaction processing services, and Miami-based Intercredit Bank, N.A., today announced they will launch a pilot in December deploying CardLok, Ipsidy's biometric, multi-factor, identity authentication service for financial institutions.

Ipsidy's identity transaction platform helps our customers verify and trust that the identity of the person on the other side of everyday transactions was duly verified. The platform facilitates a range of everyday transactions, including payments, votes, or physical or digital access, embedded with the participant's authenticated identity. IdLok™ is our suite of fully-managed, biometric multi-factor mobile applications that provide users with a frictionless identity authentication experience that puts them in control of their identities using their own device. CardLok is an application specifically designed for use by financial institutions to protect their customers' transactions and provide consumers with simplified, secure access using a mobile device.

Intercredit will initially offer CardLok to its clients with debit-card accounts and thereafter look to utilize CardLok and IdLok and their identity authentication capabilities to enhance security and efficiency in other parts of its operations.

"We are excited to launch the CardLok program and thereby become the first bank in the United States to utilize this technology" said Simon Cruz, President & CEO of Intercredit. "Identity and cyber security are major issues in the financial services industry. We place paramount importance on identity verification and therefore technologies that can help us achieve that are in high demand. Our customers are also seeking solutions that protect their accounts and give them control over access to their money, in a convenient way. We believe that CardLok and IdLok offer our customers secure identity authentication that is easy to implement, enhances the Bank's mobile banking offering and gives our customers a user-friendly experience and peace of mind."

Philip Beck, Chairman and CEO of Ipsidy said "Ipsidy is pleased to partner with Intercredit Bank to launch CardLok in the United States. Our forthcoming pilot furthers our goals of delivering solutions that provide the high level of transaction security, control and certainty that is required to operate in the critical, financial sector."
