Certisfy is an app that allows people to have their information (ex drivers license info) verified and get issued a cryptographic certificate for the certified document. They'll then be able to use that certificate online for things like social media or e-commerce interactions.
There is a great need for an inexpensive and scalable method of online verification for basic information such as people's names, addresses, age and the like.
Working with trust anchor partners, Certisfy helps address this need.
A trust anchor is an entity that can be thought of as being independently trustworthy by virtue of either their role in society or some other qualification they may have.
Depending on their scope of trustworthiness, trust anchors could delegate their trustworthiness to individuals or other entities, for instance a police department delegates trustworthiness onto individual officers.
Certisfy partners with trust anchors and/or their delegates to issue trustworthy cryptographic certificates as described on Certisfy.com.
There are a lot of entities that can serve as trust anchors, these are mostly organizational entities but they may well be individuals. A lot of government agencies, educational institutions law/judiciary institutions could all serve as trust anchors.
Below are some examples of possible trust anchors.
There are two key reasons to become a trust anchor partner:
The primary incentive for becoming a partner is financial. You'll earn money charging users for the information you verify and issue certificates for.
Given the scale of activity on the internet for which information verification is valuable, there are substantial revenue opportunities even for trust anchors in locations that are not highly populated.
The revenue is also of a recurring nature. Certificates will need to be renewed periodically, users will also often need multiple types of certificates for different use cases.
Beyond the financial benefits, serving as a trust anchor is an inherently civic activity. For instance, issuing age verification certificates to prevent underage access to inappropriate content or products is rewarding beyond the financial benefit.
