User Verification API
Introduction
The User Verification API is a solution for user Identification that relies on fact-based location and phone connection data, rather than proximity or GPS-based data. We cross-verify user information by utilizing shared data signals such as historical addresses, email and other key attributes. By simply inputting a name and phone number, the API returns valuable connections between the user and other individuals, offering insights into whether they share the same address or any other relevant detail. The API also provides alternate locations, enhancing the verification or collectability process with more accuracy.
Background
Effective user verification is crucial in maintaining trust and security within a business. Misidentifying users or failing to catch discrepancies in shared details can lead to bad behavior activities or fraudulent activities. Several challenges were identified in user verification:
Inconsistent Data Sources: Verifying users based on multiple sources can be inconsistent, time-consuming and often inaccurate.
Limited Visibility: Users often lack the ability to assess whether users are connected through shared attributes
Inadequate Location Information: Lack of alternate location data often results in an incomplete understanding of a user’s whereabouts and behavior.
Implementation Benefits
Integrating the User Verification API into your platform will enable you to access the following key benefits:
Analyzing Discrepancies: Identifies inconsistencies in the user information provided, allowing businesses to spot potential errors or fraudulent behavior early in the process.
Alternate Location Detection: By returning alternate location details, this API gives a more comprehensive understanding of where users may be present, improving both accuracy and security for user verification.
Alternative Contact Information: Our service not only verifies users but also provides alternative contact information for users on data input, such as alternate phone numbers or phone numbers connected with the users. This helps improve communication reach and ensures you can stay connected with customers even when their primary contact information is unavailable
