A method at a server, the method comprising:

• during a first remote session, receiving a signal representing identification information of a first applicant, and a signal representing at least two pieces of contact data for second applicant;
• transmitting, using a first piece of contact data for the second applicant a signal representing a unique link;
• transmitting, using a second piece of contact data for the second applicant, a signal representing a one-time password;
• initiating a second remote session, in response to receipt of a signal representing the one-time password, the one-time password being provided via the unique link;
• during the second remote session, receiving a signal representing identification information of the second applicant;
• and
• creating a new multi-applicant account profile, after verifying the identification information of the first applicant and the identification information of the second applicant.

A non-transitory machine-readable medium having tangibly stored thereon executable instructions for execution by a processor of a server, wherein the instructions, when executed by the processor, cause the server to:

• during a first remote session, receive, via a communication interface of the server, a signal representing identification information of a first applicant, and a signal representing at least two pieces of contact data for second applicant;
• transmit, using a first piece of contact data for the second applicant, via the communication interface, a signal representing a unique link;
• transmit, using a second piece of contact data for the second applicant, via the communication interface, a signal representing a one-time password;
• initiate a second remote session, in response to receipt, via the communication interface, of a signal representing the one-time password, the one-time password being provided via the unique link;
• during the second remote session, receive, via the communication interface, a signal representing identification information of the second applicant;
• and
• create a new multi-applicant account profile, after verifying the identification information of the first applicant and the identification information of the second applicant.
