Internet Identity System MiiCard Raises $2.5M To Help You Prove You Are Who You Say You Are Online

miicard_logoWith the rise of startups building on top of the collaborative consumption model - that is, where users are buying from and selling directly to other users - there's a growing need for some sort of system to help verify user identities. Although there are others quietly working in this space, today the U.K.-based startup MiiCard, which is building an identity verification service, has moved a step ahead. The company has just completed its second seed funding round, raising $2.5 million from New Wave Ventures, IQ Capital and Par Equity. MiiCard had previously raised $750,000 back in September, also from IQ and Par Equity. The company says it aims to use the additional funding to move into the U.S. market.

Of course, there's a chance the woman in white will be Cobie Smulders' character Robin (Barney's ex-girlfriend) -- but the actress is sworn to secrecy. "I can't really reveal much, but I can say that it's going to be a big episode," Smulders, 30, tells iVillage exclusively. "And it's a big reveal."

You'll see the capsule circle the planet before touching down in the Pacific -- all with a much better view than you can expect when that actual launch date rolls around. The animation features audio clips from the original Apollo and, as any NASA-related video worth its salt should, includes a vintage voiceover from space sage Carl Sagan.
