Method and system for declarative configuration of user self-registration pages and processes for a service provider and automatic deployment of the same

A method for declaratively configuring a sign up process and a sign up page for a particular service provider, the method comprising:

• displaying, at a user system of a particular service provider, a one or more user interfaces that includes a plurality of options for declaratively configuring different sign up processes and sign up pages for the particular service provider;
• and
• after receiving a selection of one of the options to configure the sign up process and the sign up page via the one or more user interfaces:
• receiving an input that specifies one of a plurality of different types of identifiers associated with a user to be verified as part of the sign up process for the service provider, and one of a plurality of different types of identity verification processes to define how the user will be verified as part of the sign up process for the service provider.

A system comprising:

• a user system of a particular service provider, comprising:
• a display configured to display one or more user interfaces that includes a plurality of options for declaratively configuring different sign up processes and corresponding sign up pages for the particular service provider, wherein the user interface is configured to receive:
• a first input to select one of the options to configure the sign up process and the corresponding sign up page for deployment by that particular service provider;
• a second input to specify at least one user attribute to collect from the user, the at least one attribute comprising:
• a type of identifier associated with a user to be verified as part of the sign up process for the particular service provider, wherein the type of identifier defines how the user is identified and looked-up during the sign up process for the particular service provider, and wherein the type of identifier is one of a plurality of different types of identifiers that can be specified;
• and
• a third input to specify a type of identity verification process to define how the user will be verified as part of the sign up process for the particular service provider, wherein the type of identity verification process defines how the user will be verified as part of the sign up process for that service provider, wherein the type of identity verification process is one of a plurality of different types of identity verification processes;
• and
• a server system in communication with the user system, wherein server system comprises:
• an application platform is configured to receive the first input, the second input, and the third input, and to generate the sign up page based on the first input, the second input and the third input, wherein the sign up page comprises features and logic for the sign up process that are customized for that particular service provider.

A computing system, comprising:

• a processor;
• and
• a display configured to display one or more user interfaces, the one or more user interfaces comprising:
• a first user interface element that presents a plurality of options for declaratively configuring different sign up processes and corresponding sign up pages for a particular service provider, wherein the user interface is configured to receive a first input to select one of the plurality of options to configure a sign up process and a corresponding sign up page for automatic deployment by the particular service provider;
• a second user interface element configured to receive a second input to declaratively specify at least one user attribute to collect from the user, the at least one attribute comprising:
• a type of identifier associated with a user to be verified as part of the sign up process for the particular service provider, wherein the type of identifier is one of a plurality of different types of identifiers that can be specified, wherein each type of identifier defines how the user is identified and looked-up during the sign up process for that service provider;
• and
• a third user interface element configured to receive a third input to declaratively specify a type of identity verification process to define how the user will be verified as part of the sign up process for the particular service provider, wherein the type of identity verification process is one of a plurality of different types of identity verification processes, and
• wherein the processor is configured to communicate the first input, the second input, and the third input to a server system that comprises an application platform, wherein the application platform is configured to generate the corresponding sign up page based on the first input, the second input and the third input, wherein the corresponding sign up page comprises features and logic for the sign up process that are customized for that particular service provider.
