NCC BioVerify — Mobile Biometric Onboarding for Trading Accounts
NCC BioVerify is a complimentary Android application created by NCCPL to streamline biometric onboarding for individuals in Pakistan opening trading accounts. Tailored for resident individual customers, the app enables a one-time biometric confirmation using the user’s smartphone, removing the need for separate scanning hardware or in-person enrollment.
Who should use it
This solution targets Pakistani residents who are applying for a trading account and must complete mandated biometric verification. It is intended for retail customers who prefer a digital-first, self-service path to verify their identity quickly and securely.
