CLEAR1

New York – October 11, 2026 -- CLEAR (NYSE: YOU) has integrated its CLEAR1 secure identity platform with Amazon Web Services' Amazon Connect, allowing contact centers to verify a caller's identity before or during a support interaction.

The integration targets fraud, impersonation and high-friction verification, which the company identifies as weak points in contact center support. Organizations can place identity checks earlier in the support journey, before the customer speaks with an agent.

Callers verify via SMS link before reaching an agent

When a customer calls a support center powered by Amazon Connect, they can choose to verify through CLEAR. Customers who opt in receive a secure SMS link and complete verification on their phone. The call is then routed to an agent, who sees the verification result in real time.

The tie-up targets identity-based attacks, in which adversaries use legitimate credentials and trusted access pathways to blend into normal digital activity. Combining Falcon with CLEAR1 lets companies verify both the device and the human behind it.
