Proof, a leading provider of identity verification and digital security solutions, has announced a significant integration with ServiceLink, the nation’s top digital mortgage services provider. This partnership strengthens fraud prevention by embedding Proof’s Identify solution into ServiceLink’s processes, enhancing security for all types of real estate transactions, whether digital or traditional.
ServiceLink, a pioneer in digitizing the closing process, can now offer advanced identity verification from the start of every transaction. This integration adds a critical layer of protection, ensuring borrower identities are verified early in the process to reduce fraud risks throughout the entire transaction lifecycle.
“At ServiceLink, we prioritize the security and integrity of every transaction through a proactive approach,” said Dave Steinmetz, Division President, Origination Services at ServiceLink. “This partnership enhances our fraud detection capabilities, modernizing both in-person and digital closings. Proof’s solution integrates seamlessly with our signing processes, creating a streamlined and secure workflow for our clients.”
Through this collaboration, ServiceLink now provides multiple identity verification methods, including biometric comparison and compliance with NIST IAL2 standards, offering the highest level of security. Key features for ServiceLink clients include:
- Identity Verification at Every Step: Proof’s Identify solution ensures identity validation from the beginning of the transaction, not just at closing, preventing fraud before major resources are committed.
- Flexible Implementation Options: Proof offers various identity verification methods, including email, SMS, API integration, and QR codes for paper-based transactions. This allows ServiceLink to secure both digital and traditional closings, providing seamless and safe solutions for all clients.
Pat Kinsel, CEO of Proof, highlighted the importance of the partnership in today’s real estate environment, where fraud is increasingly prevalent. “Real estate fraud is on the rise, and the industry needs solutions that safeguard every type of transaction. Proof’s mission is to ensure trust through seamless and adaptable identity verification.”
This partnership comes at a crucial time, as fraud in real estate continues to escalate, causing billions in losses annually. The collaboration between Proof and ServiceLink offers clients an extra layer of security to address this growing challenge proactively.
