The Team
The role fits into the product development squad for our low/no code customer onboarding solution – GBG GO. This is a cloud-hosted solution that enables businesses of all sizes to verify the identity of new customers. GO provides ready-to-go customer journey templates, an easy, drag-and-drop journey builder, and a smooth UI editor with a built-in customer consent check, enabling organisations to go to market in minutes, not days.
GO takes prospective customers on a dynamic, decision-driven journey, fast-tracking low- risk customers and taking higher-risk customers on a more secure route. Secure identity document proofing, data verification and AI-powered decisions come together to help businesses minimize risk, meet compliance, fight fraud and grow their customer base.
