Chile eKYC non-doc verification leverages Chile's source of truth to validate individuals. It is essential in eKYC processes for ensuring identity authenticity, regulatory compliance, and enhanced security. It helps prevent fraud, boosts user trust, and streamlines operations through automated and efficient verification methods.

Integration

User input flow

eKYC module configuration gives various options to specify different search criteria with various sources of truth for each country (eg. US has multiple via Telco, Credit Bureau, and Driver's License). User data can be collected via a user input flow by using pre-selected fields where users can type in their name or date of birth, etc. See an example below:

eKYC user flow input example

Module configuration

The module configuration can be leveraged to select the applicable fields for the input data you would like to collect from the end user.

eKYC module configuration

Direct API Approach

All module configurations and user data can be forwarded directly in the request for performing an eKYC search. This will override existing configuration and data collected about the user.

API Authentication

All endpoints require authentication headers to be specified as stated in Incode API Documentation

eKYC request

eKYC error responses

Please refer to error response to see conventional HTTP response codes to indicate the success or failure of an API request.

For Spain, custom 400 error messages if taxId, or country is " " or null:

message: taxId, and country are minimum required fields.

Overall Level

Overall Level is the API response key for the submitted name. The fields low, medium, and high are mapped to a proprietary fuzzy matching algorithm that is mapped to a score from 0 to 100.

As a default, overallLevel will return:

low: when fullNameMatch & idNumMatch are exact; high: when fullNameMatch & idNumMatch are nomatch; medium: for all otherwise combination.
