This post is part of our live coverage of FinovateSpring 2014.
Second up this morning, Jumio showed how Fastfill saves time spent filling out forms:
“When customers arrive at your sign-up or checkout form they see a “Scan ID” option in addition to traditional key entry fields. Your customer simply taps the “Scan ID” button, selects the ID they wish to use, and holds it up to their device camera. Fastfill scans the ID, extracts the data it contains, and feeds data into your new account form; it takes just a second or two. 
Our patented technology offers three different data reading capabilities: bar code, MRZ, and OCR to enable customer data to be extracted from any of three ID types issued by over 100 countries.”
