Taylor Liggett - ID.me’s Strategy for Adoption, Monetization, and Brand for 100 Million Wallets and Beyond

The Future of Identity

In today’s episode we spoke with Taylor Liggett, Chief Growth Officer of ID.me, which is the largest reusable ID network in the United States and may be the largest private digital ID network in the world. With over 100 million user wallets and $150 million in revenue, ID.me has figured some things out about reusable ID adoption and monetization.

We talk about how reusable identity reduces the friction required to undergo a verification, and therefore expands the market. Taylor shares specific stats on conversion rates and completion times that are very interesting.

We cover a bunch of tactical topics, like:

• The education process needed to onboard relying parties
• How the go-to-market of a reusable ID product differs from a traditional transaction-based identity verification solution
• ID.me’s decision to prioritize web experiences over requiring a mobile wallet
• The business model ID.me charges its customers

Taylor spoke to some of the common objections that people online and in the media tend to have with ID.me. He did a great job addressing ID.me's tie-in with government, their strategy to build consumer trust in their brand after experiencing both good and bad press, and how they’re thinking about the evolution of interoperability in the space.
