How they describe themselves: Arkalogic offers a variety of payment, transaction, and remittance systems for businesses and consumers in the form of combined mobile wallet, e-money, mobile POS, and m-commerce, seamlessly. We process payments securely.

Our mission is to address the problem of closed payment ecosystems that technology, telco companies, and banks try to create and offer exclusively on their own, with different technology platforms and different user interfaces.

For Arkalogic Transaksi, a mobile financial solution must be cost efficient for the institutions. It must also be amusing and help the consumers as opposed to confusing and taxing them. Arkalogic is an innovator, incubator, and an investor in secure mobile financial technology.

How they describe their product/innovation: For Arkalogic Transaksi, a mobile financial solution must be cost efficient for institutions. It must also be amusing and help consumers as opposed to confusing and taxing them. Advanced yet simple technology combined with great design of customer experience and meticulous customer care are the key ingredients to Arkalogic Transaksi’s latest solution, Moneta.

Moneta’s dream essentially is to create a mass and “seamless” payment system for bank and telco customers in the form of combined mobile wallet, e-money, mobile payment, and mobile commerce, in Indonesia and globally.

With one registration and with one platform that is easy for partners to integrate into their existing system and for end consumers to ‘plug and play,’ Moneta believes that transactions and life should be simple and secure. Always.

How they describe themselves: As our tagline states, authenticID is “True Identity Made Simple.” Our solutions work worldwide – and our pictureID solution is 100% accurate – a claim no other identity proofing solution can make. Traditional identity proofing companies’ solutions leave holes that allow ID fraudsters to easily penetrate their defenses, as reflected by the skyrocketing increase in new account and account takeover fraud in 2012. authenticID takes a novel approach by creating highly innovative solutions that are immune to commonly deployed fraud schemes.

How they describe their product/innovation: authenticID’s identity authentication solution, pictureID, annihilates ID fraud. It is the only system that’s invulnerable to fraud schemes. Our unique agreements allow pictureID to connect directly with document issuers in the US and Canada. This allows companies to go directly to the source for identity authentication. Unlike current identity proofing providers – we don’t “guess.” We provide absolute confirmation since document issuers records are unique to every citizen. There’s no way to trick pictureID – it returns a picture of the real consumer on file with the document issuer – with 100% accuracy.
