WHY WAS THE IDGO CARD CREATED?Identity Fraud: Most people in the UK use passports or driving licenses for proof of identity and age verification. However, these documents are not safe for everyday use and nightlife purposes as they contain all the information that fraudsters need to steal your identity and set up fraudulent accounts in your name. Protecting your identity is of utmost importance as fraud and cybercrime cases continue to rise. Card Fraud: Contactless payments have become the most convenient way to make transactions, but they also pose a risk of card fraud. With millions of contactless card transactions in the UK, a significant amount of money is lost to fraud each year. Traditional bank and credit cards only display the cardholder's gender, making it easier for fraudsters of the same gender to use stolen payment cards without detection.
