How it Works
Lorem Ipsum
Why Prove?
Identity intelligence built for payment verification
Prove verifies the human behind the payment - not just the account. Identity is validated independently of the payment network, enabling consistent verification across ACH, cards, crypto, and real-time rails
Prove treats the phone number as a root identity signal and uses real-time signals such as tenure, activity, and behavioral patterns to strengthen identity verification and detect fraud
Prove combines identity verification and authentication into a single flow so organizations can confirm who the payment recipient is and authorize transactions with stronger identity assurance
Help build the future of payment recipient verification
Push payment fraud continues to grow across payment rails. Prove is developing Know Your Payee to verify the identity of payment recipients before funds are sent. Join the Design Partner Program to help shape how banks and payment platforms prevent fraud and securely verify recipients across payment networks.
