Unum ID - 1-Click KYC Onboarding - Brief Introduction

In this short presentation, Aidan McCarty introduces Unum ID’s reusable digital identity platform that enables one‑click onboarding for fintech services. He outlines the problem of high‑friction KYC processes, which cause a 26% drop‑out rate in user sign‑up flows, and explains how Unum ID’s digital ID card network creates verified credentials bound to a user’s mobile device. These credentials can be instantly presented to any participating fintech (investment platforms, lenders, crypto exchanges), allowing a single‑click signup. The business model involves fintechs paying the credential issuers (KYC vendors, BaaS providers) for access to verified user data, resulting in higher conversion rates. Unum ID currently offers early partners free or subsidized KYC, positioning the solution as a win‑win for both users and fintechs. The pitch ends with a QR code invitation to learn more and join the reusable ID movement.
