Identity Match Request
Access Endpoint URL: https://rest.everyware.com/api/v1/identity-score/identity-match [POST]
Summary
You can use the IdentityMatch method to pass a phone number (mobile/landline) and other personal information via API call to national census and credit bureau databases for verification.
The response to this method includes detailed information related to the passed phone number, as well as one of the following "Identity Match" statuses:
- Full match - Indicates the first name, last name, address, city, state, and zip code provided in the request fully match a record found within the databases.
- Partial match - Indicates the first name, last name, address, city, state, and zip code provided in the request partially match a record found within the databases. Partial match can occur in two scenarios:
- Matches on last name, city, state, and zip code
- Matches on first name, address, state, and zip code
- No match - Indicates that the requirements for a Full or Partial Match were not met by the provided information.
Contacts Must Be Created
A valid contact will be created when the Identity Match Request API is used. You can also create a contact with the CreateCustomer method or CreateInvoice method.
Optional Contact Information
If the optional fields are not provided in the request, the information in the existing contact record will be used.
