Phone Number Verification

Phone Number Lookup API

To perform verification on a phone number, make a POST request to the following endpoint;

https://api.korapay.com/merchant/api/v1/identities/ng/phone

The request body should have the following parameters:

{
   "id": "08000000000",
   "verification_consent": true
}

The fields in this request include:

Field	Data Type	Description
`id`	String	Required - the ID number
`verification_consent`	Boolean	Required - this indicates that subject has given consent to perform this verification. This must be `true` for the check to be performed.

The response to this request would look like this:

{
   "status": true,
   "message": "Phone number verified successfully",
   "data": {
       "reference": "VR-HtMZpQfPmYc4Xby5N",
       "id": "08000000000",
       "id_type": "ng_phone",
       "first_name": "JOHN",
       "last_name": "DOE",
       "middle_name": "MICHAEL",
       "full_name": "JOHN MICHAEL DOE",
       "date_of_birth": "1977-04-04",
       "requested_by": "API User"
   }
}

A webhook notification will also be sent to your application immediately the phone number verification is completed.
