CALGARY, AB, Dec. 5, 2023 /CNW/ - ATB Ventures, the research and innovation arm of ATB Financial, today announced a groundbreaking partnership with PayTrie, a leading platform for secure stablecoin purchasing and selling in Canada. PayTrie has selected Oliu, ATB Ventures' state-of-the-art digital ID verification solution, to streamline customer enrollment and verification processes.
The partnership marks a key milestone as PayTrie becomes the first digital asset platform to integrate Oliu for ID verification. The integration of Oliu enables PayTrie customers to swiftly verify their identities using their existing identity documents, provincial digital IDs, and, uniquely, bank login credentials, in compliance with FINTRAC (Financial Transactions and Reports Analysis Centre of Canada) identity verification guidelines.

By leveraging Oliu's cutting-edge digital ID verification, we aim to redefine the onboarding experience for PayTrie and its customers, ensuring a swift, highly secure, and user-friendly process."
