IDnow and M-Tribes: Digital Identification for Mobility Services

The provider of Identity-Verification-as-a-Service IDnow and M-Tribes, an end-to-end software provider for transportation companies, have announced a strategic collaboration. As part of the partnership, M-Tribes integrates IDnow's digital, AI-based identification solution into its platform to quickly, reliably, and above all user-friendly, perform legally necessary identifications of customers and users, according to the new partners.

This allows companies, for example, in car sharing, car rental, urban mobility such as free-floating sharing of scooters, e-scooters, e-bikes, or in fleet management, to implement legally verified identification of users. The identification component securely verifies within smartphone apps or web applications that the user is indeed who they claim to be and authorizes the use of the service, the provider further outlines. This way, the age or validity of identification or driving license documents can be confirmed in a legally compliant manner.

Partnership enables international perspective

IDnow sees itself as a leader in digital identity verification with artificial intelligence (AI), which has been trained with millions of data points to securely verify potentially seven billion customers from 193 different countries, the provider explains. Through the cooperation, M-Tribes aims to ensure that the identity management component of the software platform can be used by customers in the international mobility industry.

"More and more business processes in the mobility and transport sector are taking place digitally. Innovative, customer-oriented mobility concepts and services require simple and reliable handling that guarantees maximum security for all parties. Digital identification plays a central role in this," explains Andreas Bodczek, CEO of IDnow.

Patrick Arle, CEO & Founder of M-Tribes, sees the seamless integration of IDnow's AI-based identity verification into the M-Tools technology platform as an important building block to enhance operational efficiency and improve the customer experience across a variety of mobility offerings, as promised.

EWE Go: Fast, digital, and reliable solution

The solution is used, for example, by mobility service providers like EWE Go GmbH, a subsidiary of the energy provider EWE AG. They were looking for a fast, digital, and reliable solution to perform the legally necessary identification process steps. This has now been achieved with the integration of IDnow/M-Tribes, praises Lukas Schneider, Business Development Manager at EWE Go GmbH.
