We have had an opportunity to incorporate our customer feedback into our product as we prepare to scale up further for the holiday season in the 4th quarter."

The Company also announced the launch of the Wocket Wagon. This is a fully featured experiential vehicle in the form of an armored car representing the security features that come with Wocket. The Wocket Wagon will tour the country making demos, sales and increasing customer awareness about Wocket and identity theft.

Wocket can bring tomorrow's security solutions to most legacy POS systems today while incorporating the ability to pay on new digital systems.

Wocket secures all the information and cards consumers commonly store in their wallet, allowing them to continue paying with and use their credit, debit, loyalty, and insurance cards just as they do today. Wocket can even store login credentials and one thing that no digital wallet can ever replace - cash.

Q&A Interview; How ID Global Solutions (OTCBB:IDGS) Plans to Provide Global Business and Consumers Fraud Protection and Mobile Payment Solutions

Q&A Interview; How ID Global Solutions (OTCBB:IDGS) Plans to Provide Global Business and Consumers Fraud Protection and Mobile Payment Solutions

New York NY - Point Roberts WA - October 7, 2015 - Investorideas.com (www.investorideas.com) a global investor news source covering leading sectors including tech and mobile payments issues an exclusive interview with Mr. Thomas R. Szoke, President/CEO of ID Global Solutions (OTCBB:IDGS). The company’s core focus is in fraud management and payment solutions. Thomas explains his company’s mission and gives insight as to where he sees the market is headed and how his company plans to establish a dominant role in this space.

Interview:

Q: Investorideas.com
For investors that don’t know your company can you give them an overview of IDGS, your various divisions and your products and services portfolio in mobile payments and fraud protection?

A: Thomas R. Szoke – President/CEO
IDGS provides multi-functional secure payment solutions for open and closed electronic payment transaction networks. The company is focused on the growing need for fraud protection and identity verification solutions.  ID Global Solutions was founded to pioneer key innovative approaches for the development, integration, and delivery of advanced digital identification and payment solutions.

Fraud Management and Payment Solutions are the two focus areas for IDGS.  Within Fraud Management, the company offers unique Identity Verification solutions for Financial Services Organizations (IDComplete) and Governments (IDSolutions).  IDComplete provides a secure real-time method for cardholder verification to eliminate fraud.  IDGS’ IDSolutions portfolio offers software and hardware products to deliver a wide variety of identification and verification capabilities for civilian as well as governmental applications.

Our Payment Solutions portfolio includes MultiPay, OnePay, and PaySpot.  MultiPay provides end-to-end payment transaction processing technology. OnePay is a closed payment solution using a secure digital currency enabled by our mobile applications and backend systems for consumers and merchants in emerging markets. PaySpot is an unattended multi-functional payment collection and processing kiosk solution.


Q: Investorideas.com
Can you explain IDComplete’s impact on the payment process, the issuing bank, and ultimately how the consumer is impacted to eliminate fraudulent transactions?

A: Thomas R. Szoke – President/CEO
IDComplete aligns to all industry standards.   IDComplete does not impact existing players or processes within the acquiring network external to the issuing bank.  Today, prior to a transaction being authorized, issuing banks determine the approval of the transaction based primarily on the account status of the cardholder. There are other criteria employed by issuers to determine fraud that are predictive in nature including buyer behavior pattern, location, merchant type, and the transaction amount.

IDComplete compliments these by providing real-time cardholder verification.  This is done in parallel to the issuer authorizing the transaction based on cardholder status. IDComplete is triggered to deliver a notification to a registered mobile phone to approve or deny an active transaction.  Within the notification is the date, merchant’s name, and the transaction amount along with the option to “approve” or “decline” the transaction through a proprietary secure pin delivery method.


Q: Investorideas.com
A lot of the big tech giants are entering the mobile payment and credit card and identity fraud protection space such as Apple, Samsung, and Google. Everyone has a different approach with levels of security in biometrics and other security measures so what differentiates your company’s technology and how can you compete?

A: Thomas R. Szoke – President/CEO
Our solution has been built to eliminate card fraud.  IDComplete is the only product in the market that provides real-time verification of identity in a proactive manner.  All existing fraud prevention approaches in the market are re-active and do not prevent card fraud in real-time.  For example, sending a SMS or push notification after a transaction is complete asking the cardholder to contact the issuer in the event of fraud is re-active.  Today, cardholders are put into a position to reconcile their transactions whereas IDComplete offers the ability for the cardholder to police their transactions by embedding cardholder verification in real-time prior to any transactions being processed.


Q: Investorideas.com
As someone in the sector, can you give us some insight and perspective as to where you see card fraud trends heading both in the US and globally?   And on that note, where is your primary focus geographically?

A: Thomas R. Szoke – President/CEO
As a backdrop, global card fraud exceeded $16 Billion in 2014, which analysts forecast to exceed $35 Billion globally by 2020.  In 2014, approximately $8 Billion of card fraud loss occurred in the USA and half of $8 Billion card fraud occurred during card not present (CNP) / online purchases.  This equates to more than $4 Billion of collective loss to issuers, cardholders, and merchants.

IDGS’s geographic focus is to roll out our IDComplete solution for eliminating card fraud in the US market. Our initial strategy is to focus on the card not present (CNP)/ online purchases because they are not being addressed by the implementation of the new EMV standards.


Q: Investorideas.com
You recently announced a deal with MultiPay SAS, which is headquartered in Bogota, Colombia (http://www.multipay.com.co/).  Can you give us a brief background for new investors and an update on the progress of the company?

A: Thomas R. Szoke – President/CEO
Multi-pay S.A.S. is a well established multi-functional payment gateway company providing traditional credit card processing services, domestic and international wire transfer services, mobile operator pre-paid account re-charge services, and various closed system payment solutions for numerous customers in Colombia and Peru.  Since the acquisition the company has been integrated into the IDGS structure and has expanded it’s core engineering and delivery teams to increase the capabilities of our platform and deliver more services to new and existing customers. In addition, since the acquisition the company has secured additional contracts with banks and enterprise customers for money transfer and payment processing services.

SoundView Technology Group Issues NXT-ID (NASDAQ: NXTD) Update; Scaling Up

SoundView Technology Group Issues NXT-ID (NASDAQ: NXTD) Update; Scaling Up

BOSTON - October 5, 2015 (Investorideas.com Newswire) SoundView Technology Group (http://soundview.co) releases the following market and company update for NXT-ID, Inc. (NASDAQ: NXTD), a biometric authentication company focused on the growing mobile commerce market.

NXT-ID (NXTD $0.80)
Scaling Up
Kris Tuttle

Recent Highlights
We've been holding regular monthly meetings with NXT-ID to more closely track their progress since things are moving much faster now that the Wocket is in production. Here are some recent highlights:

Production ramp: NXT-ID is currently shipping their Wocket in steadily increasing numbers. Revenues are growing rapidly on a sequential basis - from $100K in Q2 to $400K in Q3 with a solid Q4 expected. The company continues to track very closely to our IV model projections which suggest a stock price of $7.47. Our unit sales estimates for 2016 and beyond appear to be low but we will re-evaluate those numbers as we exit 2015.

Expanded distribution: NXT started working with Touch of Modern which is a kind of high-style-geek batch sale site. NXTD also announced[1] that they would be available on Amazon taking advantage of Amazon stocking and shipping services. These new outlets are a measured expansion intended to line up with the ability to build and ship units. As manufacturing capacity expands we can expect to see more distribution arrangements. We still love the idea of using QVC where the value proposition and audience seem like a very good fit.

Influential advisors: Bill Fields has joined with NXT-ID as a senior advisor to help oversee market strategy and distribution. Mr. Fields brings 25 years of experience from Wal-Mart where he rose to position of President and CEO of the Wal-Mart Stores Division. This will bring greater access and expertise in retail distribution. We also like the demonstration of a high standard of corporate governance despite the small size of the company.

Product pipeline: NXTD has released an App that provides customers with tools to update and manage their Wocket via the smartphones. They are also working on EMV-compatible designs for release later this year. Since they have solved what we view as the harder problem in smart wallets they are in a good position to do an easier one like a smart credit card linked to your phone. (This is what many others like Stratos have done.) It's less secure but it is convenient. The Wocket card works at far more points of sale than the others and the company will release a phone/card solution that expands their TAM and probably puts a dent in the opportunity for Stratos and that ilk of product. Card issuers believe they will still be issuing twice as many conventional cards versus EMV in 2019.

Possible bluebird: We haven't focused too much on the biometric side of the NXT-ID business due to all the excitement around the Wocket. However the 3D-ID business is part of the company and has been working with Battelle as a subcontractor on some major military initiatives. Specifically 3D-ID has been selected as the technology to be used for 3D facial recognition. This probably amounts to an incremental $150K to $200K of high margin revenue so it's not dramatic (but is high margin.) However having military-grade biometric technology is an asset in digital wallets and payments. We recount some of the important NXT-ID biometric technology below.
