UK’s biggest e-scooter operator Voi partners with Onfido to check rider identities
Summary
The use of best practice identity verification technology to ensure that all users hold driving licences was repeatedly recognised as an essential factor in councils’ decisions to offer Voi tenders. Voi also has ambassadors on city streets to educate riders and ensure the scooters are correctly parked, operating in close collaboration with the local police to enforce appropriate behaviour. Voi is committed to offering an alternative, safe and sustainable mode of transport to transform the way we move around cities, and our partnership with the leading online identity verification tech company Onfido are essential to that mission.” “We’re pleased to be partnering with Voi Scooters to introduce digital identity verification to confirm their riders’ eligibility and support their tenders for UK e-scooter trials,” said Kevin Trilli, Chief Product Officer of Onfido. The company digitally proves a user’s real identity using AI, by verifying a photo ID and comparing it to the person’s facial biometrics. Voi has been a carbon-neutral company since January 2020 and has adopted the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) as a guiding framework and has set a clear agenda for reducing and offsetting emissions.
