Consumer Onboarding with Advanced Prefill
Reduce onboarding friction and prevent fraud by prefilling verified identity data from minimal inputs before running full KYC and compliance checks with RiskOS™.
What is Advanced Prefill?
Consumer Onboarding with Advanced Prefill is a two-workflow RiskOS™ solution that reduces onboarding friction by prefilling verified identity data from minimal user input. Instead of requiring applicants to complete lengthy identity forms, Advanced Prefill collects minimal input, for example a phone number and one other attribute (date of birth or last 4 SSN is preferred), verifies the requester through device and phone checks, and returns a verified identity profile from Socure's Identity Graph. The returned profile may include details such as full name, aliases, addresses, emails, phone numbers and national identifiers.
The solution operates in two stages:
- Advanced Prefill (
advanced_pre_fill) — Verifies the requester and gates data disclosure. Returns prefilled identity data for verified, low-risk users. - Consumer Onboarding (
consumer_onboarding) — Performs full KYC, fraud, and compliance evaluation on the final data — whether prefilled, edited, or manually entered.
Advanced Prefill controls when data can be shown. Consumer Onboarding determines who can be approved.
Common use cases
- Bank accounts, credit cards, and loans
- Digital wallets, P2P payments, and remittances
- E-commerce account creation and checkout
- Prediction market new user enrollment
- Telecom SIM registration and digital activation
- Insurance enrollment and policy renewals
- Government eligibility verification and benefits distribution
Participating enrichments
Advanced Prefill uses these enrichments to verify the requester before disclosing identity data.
| Enrichment | Purpose | Usage |
|---|---|---|
| Digital Intelligence | Device, network, and behavioral telemetry | Required |
| Allow / Deny List | Filter known trusted or fraudulent identifiers | Optional |
| Phone Risk | Phone legitimacy, tenure, and carrier risk | Required |
| SIM Swap* | Recent SIM change detection on major U.S. carriers | Optional; risk-based |
| Silent Network Authentication (SNA) | Carrier-based phone number possession verification | Required; or always OTP |
| One-Time Passcode (OTP) | SMS-based phone number possession fallback | Conditional step-up from SNA |
| Prefill | Verified identity data from Socure's Identity Graph | Required |
*SIM Swap appears as a Phone Risk reason code rather than a separate enrichment. It's listed here because it contributes its own data disclosure signal.
After Advanced Prefill completes, Consumer Onboarding performs full KYC and fraud evaluation using its own set of enrichments.
