API

Our system offers a full JSON RESTful API solution for third party integration.  

The are two types of request API to put your applications onto our system:

1. Partial Request: Send us basic information and we will send the applicant an email to provide the rest of the information via our forms. All that then remains is to verify the applicants ID.

2. Full Request: You supply all the applicant’s information along with the ID information you’ve already checked and we will process the application straight away.

Our system will keep you up to date with progress and provide results via webhooks straight into your system, no need to poll our systems, all responses are provided real time.

  • Updates via webhooks on application progress
  • Results delivered as we receive them
