ILD Teleservices has enhanced its iValidate service offering to include personal identification services in addition to the current offering of name and address validation.
ILD says the new product allows its merchant customers to effectively and efficiently verify consumer records, prior to submitting charges to a consumers’ phone bill for payment. At the time of sale, merchants offering ILD Teleservices Bill to Phone payment will perform a real-time confirmation of certain personally identifiable information, including name, address, telephone and now the last four digits of a social security number, to ensure authorization.
iValidate’s new service addition can quickly confirm whether the name, address and telephone number are in fact linked to the same consumer real-time at the point of sale and it can now make sure that the personal consumer information provided matches the last four digits of the submitted social security number.
“This new verification system greatly enhances our ability to serve our merchant customers with real-time authentication and validation services, which reduces bad debt and increases returns,” said Dennis Stoutenburgh, ILD president and COO. “We are utilizing state-of-the-art logic to evaluate consumer submitted data, verify and compare it to multiple sources, and deliver an easily understood evaluation of every record.”
