SUNNYVALE, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Aug 5, 2026--

Jumio, the leading provider of AI-powered identity intelligence, today announced the launch of its reusable identity solution, selfie.DONE, across North America. This expansion marks the next phase of Jumio’s global rollout of true reusable identity, following its successful launch in Latin America earlier this year.

With selfie.DONE, the days of starting every onboarding flow with an ID document are over. By leveraging a global, consented identity graph, businesses can instantly recognize trusted users with just a selfie and only ask for a document when needed. For a large and growing share of enrolled users, that means reducing the highest-friction step in identity verification, and thus scanning an ID document disappears entirely. This approach acts as a fast lane for high-trust identities, whereas anyone the system cannot confidently recognize or match remains subject to full verification. This allows regulated organizations to reduce onboarding friction without compromising the rigorous security standards or compliance requirements necessary to operate with confidence.

Reusable identity has demonstrated a significant impact on conversion rates and platform resilience. During the intense traffic of the World Cup, a leading global gaming operator leveraged selfie.DONE to successfully scale their operations, with average daily requests more than doubling during the tournament. This performance underscores the solution's overall effectiveness, as the operator has seen up to 60% of users complete expedited, document-free verifications using selfie.DONE, driving a 20% increase in verification completion rates.

"With the launch of selfie.DONE in North America, we’re shifting the industry beyond static, point-in-time verification toward a model of continuous, contextual, and connected identity intelligence,” said Bala Kumar, president and CPTO at Jumio. “By enabling businesses to instantly recognize trusted users — without the friction of digital wallets or re-verifying from scratch — we are creating a fast lane for the digital economy."

Unlike closed-loop identity wallets or regional data silos, Jumio’s approach to reusable identity is powered by global, cross-customer intelligence. Each verification contributes to Jumio’s global identity graph of tens of millions of legitimate and fraudulent identities. This enables businesses to immediately and seamlessly recognize trusted users across geographies and industries.

This North American expansion reinforces Jumio’s leadership in reusable identity and identity intelligence, delivering a differentiated approach that balances user experience with robust fraud detection and KYC compliance. Jumio has been named as an Honorable Mention in the 2026 Gartner® Magic Quadrant™ for Identity Verification 1.

Jumio’s selfie.DONE™ Eliminates the ID Scan for Trusted Users in North America

ATLANTA (AP) — House Democrats are adding a dozen Republican-held seats to their list of targets for the November midterms, expanding the national campaign map to districts Donald Trump won easily less than two years ago.

The move brings the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee's list of targets to 58, an ambitious list that reflects Trump's diminished standing with the electorate and Democrats' belief that they can capitalize on voters' frustrations over the economy, the war in Iran and the chaotic nature of the Republican president's second administration.

“MAGA Republicans who historically have considered themselves ‘safe’ have let down the people they were elected to represent, passing disastrous policies that are crushing working families and our communities,” DCCC Chair Suzan DelBene said in a statement.

The expansion spans from GOP-held districts in swing states like Nevada to those in Republican strongholds Indiana, Arkansas and Tennessee and Democratic-dominated New York. The list includes DelBene's counterpart at the National Republican Congressional Committee, Rep. Richard Hudson of North Carolina. The targets include other incumbents and some open seats.

Democrats need just a handful of seats to erase Republicans' narrow majority and control the chamber for the final two years of Trump's tenure. Republicans lost a net of 40 House seats in the 2018 midterms during Trump’s first presidency.

Here's a look at some notable new Democratic targets:

— NORTH CAROLINA 9TH: It's notable for Democrats to target House Republicans' campaign chairman. Trump won the district by 15 percentage points in 2024 against the Democrats' presidential candidate, Vice President Kamala Harris. But Democratic Attorney General Josh Stein carried it in the same election cycle in his successful campaign for governor. Democrats note that since 2020, the district has gained 15,000 Black voters, who tend to vote for Democrats. The Democratic nominee is Richard Ojeda, who ran for Congress in West Virginia in 2018. He lost but got 44% of the vote in a district where Democrat Hillary Clinton got only 24% in the 2016 presidential election against Trump.

— ARKANSAS 2ND: Democrat Chris Jones, the party's 2022 governor's race nominee, is trying to unseat six-term Rep. French Hill in a district that once elected moderate Democrats. Trump won the district by 16 percentage points. The electorate is about 20% Black and has a growing Asian and Latino population. Democrats point to the March primary turnout, when Democratic ballots outnumbered Republican ballots for the first time since the 2018 primaries.

— FLORIDA 12TH: Held by Republican Rep. Gus Bilirakis, this is one of the districts affected by Republicans' gerrymandering efforts after the U.S. Supreme Court's decision gutting a Voting Rights Act provision that protected minority voting strength. But as part of the GOP redraw, Bilirakis' Tampa Bay area district became more Democratic and about 14% less white, according to the DCCC's analysis. Democrats will choose a nominee this month, but Washington party leaders are looking to Darren McAuley, a former Air Force surgeon, as the potential challenger.

— NEW YORK 21ST: Trump won this district by about 21 percentage points in 2024, but not long after that he pulled Rep. Elise Stefanik's nomination for U.N. ambassador because Republicans did not want to risk the seat with their narrow House majority. Stefanik, who launched a 2026 campaign for New York governor but dropped out of that race, is not seeking reelection to Congress. Now it's an open-seat battle between Republican Anthony Constantino, a Trump-aligned businessman who is self-funding his campaign, and Democrat Blake Gendebien, a dairy farmer. The district has been represented by a Republican since 2015, but Democrat Barack Obama won it twice in presidential contests.
