Additional Data via API

Veriff enhances fraud detection by enabling customers to submit session data in one of the following ways:

  1. using Veriff’s SDK user flows (Web, Android, iOS, etc)

Veriff uses several Fraud detection tools that rely on information collected about the user’s device and network to prevent fraud.

When customers are submitting sessions over Public API (as opposed to Web/Android/iOS SDKs), we do not receive enough device/network information, and this limits anti-fraud capabilities.

Solution

There is a Public API endpoint POST /sessions/{sessionId}/collected-data that enables customers to send 3 types of information about the:

  • person (end-user)

  • device

  • network (that the device is using)

See Developers documentation for the complete list of fields that customers can submit.

Availability

The functionality for sharing additional data via API is available free of charge to customers that are not on a Self-serve plan.
