QIE Pass: The “Google Sign-In” for Crypto — with Built-In KYC and Payments

Crypto has solved speed, cost, and global access. But one major friction point remains: KYC and onboarding. Every exchange requires it, every user repeats it, and every platform pays for it.

QIE Pass changes that.

Currently every time you sign up to a new crypto platform, you start from zero. Upload your ID. Take a selfie. Wait for approval. Repeat.

Now imagine instead you had a single digital passport — one identity that works everywhere with a single click.

QIE Pass turns that idea into reality.

What Is QIE Pass?

QIE Pass is a decentralized identity (DID) system (One product with 3 features) that acts as:

1. Reusable KYC

Users complete KYC once, and reuse it across multiple exchanges.

• KYC is verified by Sumsub (Subsum)
• Exchanges receive verifiable credentials, not raw documents
• Users simply consent with one click to share verification

👉 No repeated uploads. No friction.

2. Single Sign-On (SSO)

QIE Pass works like a “Login with MetaMask” or Google button for exchanges.

• One-click login across partner platforms
• No new accounts or password resets
• Dramatically lower onboarding drop-offs

👉 Faster onboarding = higher conversion for exchanges

3. Multichain Payment ID

Every user gets a universal payment identity:

• Send crypto using a simple name (e.g. john.qie) almost similar to ENS or Unstoppable domains.
• Works across multiple blockchains (There are over 50 different types of crypto addresses as seen in below image, that are not compatible)
• Eliminates wallet address errors

How It Works (Behind the Scenes)

• QIE Pass is built on decentralized identity (DID) principles
• KYC is performed by Sumsub (which covers 90%+ of crypto market), which issues verifiable credentials

🔐 Important:
QIE Pass never stores or accesses user documents.

Exchanges remain fully compliant because:

• They receive verified credentials via their own Sumsub portal
• Example integration:

The Business Model: Lower Cost, Better User Experience

KYC is one of the biggest hidden costs in crypto.

• Exchanges typically pay $1–$3 per user verification
• Onboarding drop-off can exceed 60% due to friction

QIE Pass changes this model completely.

How it works

Instead of every exchange paying for KYC separately:

• A user completes KYC once through QIE Pass
• That verification is securely reusable across multiple partner exchanges

Cost Advantage

QIE Pass operates as a whitelabel KYC reseller in partnership with Subsum, where QIE Pass covers the cost of the initial user verification (including ID check, liveliness test, and travel rule compliance).

We are then able to offer partner exchanges KYC at a significantly reduced rate (e.g. ~$0.50 per verification) due to the following:

1. Reusable Verification

Once a user is verified, that same KYC can be securely reused across multiple partner exchanges.

2. Network-Level Bulk Pricing

KYC costs are tiered based on total volume. By aggregating demand across all partner exchanges, QIE benefits from bulk pricing discounts at a network level, not just per exchange.

3. Multi-Partner Monetisation

Revenue is generated across multiple integrations as the same verified user interacts with several platforms.

What this means for exchanges

• Up to 50%+ reduction in KYC costs
• Higher onboarding conversion (less friction)
• Faster user acquisition

What this means for users

• One KYC → access multiple exchanges
• No repeated verification
• Faster onboarding

Final Thought

Just as Google simplified logins and Apple simplified payments, QIE Pass simplifies identity in crypto.
