Aella App, Nigeria’s leading single-point financial service and payment solution provider, is working with Amazon Web Services, Inc. (AWS) to empower underbanked individuals through quick access to credit and other financial services using Amazon Rekognition for identity verification. Amazon Rekognition is a fully managed computer vision service that enables developers to analyze images and videos for a variety of uses, including face identification and verification, media intelligence, custom industrial automation, and workplace safety. x With the lack of application programming interface (API) infrastructure that allows the real-time verification of government identifications in Nigeria, Aella App is changing the fintech ecosystem by taking advantage of cutting-edge AI technologies and using biometric identity verification on its mobile application, improving the accuracy of facial verification by over 40 per cent.
