General reference, eKYC Pre-fill Reference

eKYC Prefill Coverage

The eKYC Prefill module is available in the countries and sources below. The module's country and source are set in the module configuration, and every request must match them.

Each source must also be enabled for the organization. Contact your Incode representative to enable a source.

Info

This is different than eKYC Coverage.

Input formats

Field Format
phone E.164, with the country code. Only +1 numbers are accepted; the data source makes the final call on numbers from other +1 regions, such as Canada
dateOfBirth yyyy-MM-dd, not in the future and not more than 130 years ago
ssn 9 digits, as 123456789 or 123-45-6789
surName Last name, at most 100 characters
taxIdNumber Brazilian CPF, as 11 digits or XXX.XXX.XXX-XX. The check digits are verified before the lookup

Returned data per source

A Yes in the table below means the source can return the field; it is returned only when the source holds the data.

Field US_PREFILL US_PREFILL_EXPRESS BR_PREFILL

returnedDob Yes Yes Yes
returnedSsn, returnedIsItin Yes Yes No

Driver's licenses are returned only when the module's Include driver's license data option is on. When it is on and the person has no license on file, US_PREFILL returns returnedDriverLicenses: [] and US_PREFILL_EXPRESS leaves the field out. Treat both the same.

On fail, US_PREFILL_EXPRESS still returns returnedPhoneDetails, returnedPhoneStatus, and phoneValid for the looked-up number when the source checked it.

Lookup limits

Source Lookups per session
US_PREFILL 3
US_PREFILL_EXPRESS 3
BR_PREFILL 1

Each answer (pass, partialPass, fail, or inconclusive) uses up one lookup, and the limit does not reset. A repeated call with the same input in the same session returns the stored result without using up a lookup. Requests rejected with 400 and source failures (503) do not count. See Lookups per session in the eKYC Prefill API Reference.
