Improving the completion rate
To improve the volume of visits that result in a user creating or re-using a verified account with a certified company, we’ve:
started investigating the technical possibility of helping users to pause their identity verification journey for them to come back and finish it later
analysed our usage logs to find out more about the type of errors users encounter
started working on improving how we handle these errors and provide further support to users.

started automating lengthy steps in our process when releasing code to our live environment
