Travel and Tourism

Provide an entirely new, seamless, integrated, and luxurious traveler experience.

Indicio is the leading developer of award-winning decentralized identity solutions for the air transport sector.

For complex information flows where security is critical, Indicio developed and deployed the world’s first Digital Passport Credential based on the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) standards.

Indicio Proven® provides multiple ways to deploy digital identity with biometric authentication for seamless travel and border crossing using Verifiable Credentials based on ICAO DPC Type 1 specifications.

This “government-grade” digital identity enables passengers to convert their passports into authenticated digital credentials that can be used for pre-authorization for travel and seamless border crossing. Our DPC technology is being implemented by airlines and governments around the world, and is being extended to include immigration visas, airport lounge access, hotel check-in, and customer loyalty programs.

Indicio is the leading innovator in decentralized digital identity for travel.

  • World’s first successful implementation of ICAO’s DPC Type 1 specifications in a Verifiable Credential.

  • World’s first successful implementation of IATA’s One ID in a digital wallet for travel.

  • World’s first successful combination of a DPC Type 1 and OneID for international travel.

Benefits

Seamless authentication with government-grade digital identity including authenticated biometrics enables digital transformation across the travel ribbon to remove friction, error from manual data entry, and delay from manual security touchpoints — all without airlines and airports having to securely manage their passengers’ personal data.

With an Indicio Digital Passport, travelers can fully consent to share their biographic and biometric information in advance of arrival, enabling pre-authorized travel and seamless border crossing.

Airports can streamline check-in, baggage management, access to lounges, and boarding because passengers can hold and share authenticated biometric and biographic data from a verifiable digital passport. This means reduced congestion and anxiety for travelers, at the same time as Increase airport capacity without increasing resources.

Airlines can know that every traveler has been precleared to board international flights, reducing the risk of fines for inadmissible travelers. Airlines can always and instantly know their customers when they log in to airline websites and use loyalty programs — and customers can be sure they are logging into their airlines.

With a verifiable Digital Passport and authenticated biometrics, border crossing takes seconds…

Often, less than 3 seconds, offering potential improvement of over 80% compared to agent-to-traveler experience, and up to 50% improvement compared to many e-gates*

*Border admission times vary, therefore improvement metrics will vary accordingly.

Easy to implement, can work with any system… … takes just days to implement, a couple of weeks to trial, and when operational it can scale to handle all your needs — with minimal changes needed to your existing infrastructure. Indicio is the global expert in mediation, the key technical process of connecting credential issuance and verification to mobile devices.

Solves the compliance challenges around biometrics and GDPR With Indicio’s Digital Passport, the passenger holds their own biometric data, sharing it with explicit consent. Biometric presentations can be combined and compared with liveness checks to ensure the highest level of authentication, and can be deployed in multiple workflows to counter the risk of generative AI deepfakes.

Comes with a Mobile SDK So you can quickly and easily implement an Indicio Digital Passport and other Verifiable Credentials into your apps — we’ve compiled all the code you need for Android and IoS.

Easy for travelers to use Crucially, an Indicio Digital Passport is easy for a traveler to create and use as its based on familiar mobile technology.

Use a Digital PassportCredential Scan and transform your passport into a verifiable credential (with liveness and biometric assurance) for check in and border crossing.

  • Manage check-in Customers can pre fill out any information needed for their stay, recurring only a quick scan at the front desk to check in at a hotel or potentially just issuing digital room keys without a check in.

  • Digital room keys Securely issue and revoke room keys directly to customers, reducing time spent at the front desk.

  • Store tickets on a credential You can manage your airport experience through a credential, storing boarding pass info, passport info, and visa details in a way that is easily shareable.

  • Manage loyalty programs Verified loyalty program holders can be offered special deals, quick and easy lounge access and more.

  • Reduce fraud Credentials will immediately alert you if any information presented is fraudulent.

  • Reduce liability Remove the need to store any customer information locally, which also removes the need to delete it in a regulatory compliant way.

  • Reduce the stress of travel When traveling is easy and everything a traveler needs is accessible through one place on their phone they are more likely to do it more.

  • Reduce lines A quick scan keeps the line moving much faster than a person checking every ID and document.
