The addition of a second major credit bureau means GBG ID3Global customers can now verify customers against data from two of the three major UK credit bureaus via a single integration.

Prevent common errors

With three credit bureaus and multiple identity providers in the UK, many organisations choose to integrate two data points or solutions in order to increase match rates – but this can sometimes cause complications.
