KYC Match
Verify customer identity against live operator data. Real-time identity validation without exposing PII.
Overview
The KYC Match API enables comparison of customer information provided during account creation with verified records held by the Mobile Network Operator. Rather than returning personal data, it confirms whether the information you have matches operator records — preserving privacy while enabling compliance.
The API validates multiple attributes including name, address, email, date of birth, and identity documents. It uses the Jaro-Winkler distance algorithm for fuzzy matching, returning confidence scores alongside boolean match results.
How It Works
Submit customer data
Send the customer's phone number along with identity attributes you want to verify (name, address, ID document, etc.).
Operator compares records
The mobile operator compares your submitted data against their verified KYC records using the Jaro-Winkler matching algorithm.
Receive match results
You receive true/false/not_available for each attribute, plus optional confidence scores. No PII is returned — only match confirmations.
