These data verification points include:

  • Name

  • Address

  • Phone

  • Email

  • Date of Birth

  • National ID

System Requirements#

  • SSL/TLS 1.2+

Getting Started - What Can I Do?#

Check#

Determines whether the data within a submitted record is valid, e.g. whether or not a given postal code contains the given city. It can also make limited corrections and appends to the data. Check looks at each data point separately.
