EyeVerify has not one, but two big pieces of news to announce.

The Kansas City, Kan., company has closed a Series A equity funding round, raising more than $6 million from companies like Sprint, Qihoo 360 and Wells Fargo. Overall, EyeVerify has raised more than $10 million.

And speaking of Wells Fargo, it has selected EyeVerify for its brand new Wells Fargo Startup Accelerator, which is for young firms that are developing solutions for the financial industry. EyeVerify and its biometric technology could be used to help secure mobile devices and banking apps.

“No marketplace validation could be stronger than strategic investments by giants in the mobile space, including the largest security software firm in world, the leading bank in the U.S., and a wireless network operator serving more than 50 million U.S. customers,” said Toby Rush, EyeVerify’s CEO and founder.

Money from the Series A round will help EyeVerify get its product out into the marketplace. The startup has partnered with the System Works Group to make its Eyeprint ID tech available to banks in Australia. AirWatch Secure Content Locker will offer starting later this year.

Toby Rush is a former 25 Under 25® winner from his previous company, Rush Tracking Systems. EyeVerify was featured on the June cover of Thinking Bigger Business magazine.
