In this demo, attendees are getting an insider’s view into Dwolla’s real-time technology by witnessing some of the applications that have been built on the Dwolla platform. For example, Dwolla CEO, Ben Milne, will offer an overview of Dwolla’s unique approach to authentication and user discovery (through Dwolla’s directory technology) and walk through how these two features are currently being integrated into one of the world’s largest financial institutions and a growing number of application partners. The live bank-level tokenization model eliminates the threat of providing personal information (i.e. bank credentials or routing and account numbers) to a third-party or having to later tokenize the data downstream.
