Prove Identity solution

Prove Identity is a modern identity verification solution that combines active phone possession with other customer-provided information like name and address to authenticate customers.

​
Global availability

Prove Identity is available in the following regions:
  • The United States with its territories
  • Canada

​
Integration components

To implement, you’ll need the following components:
  • Prove Platform server-side SDK: You can use one of Prove’s server-side SDKs on the back end of your web application. These are available in Go, Java, .NET, TypeScript, and JavaScript. The SDK handles OAuth token management and simplifies the request and response handling. Using a different back end language? You can integrate using the API endpoints.
  • Prove Platform client-side SDK: You must use the web, iOS, or Android client-side SDK on the front end of your web application. The client-side SDK handles all server calls for Mobile Auth, one-time password (OTP), and Instant Link possession checks and handles fallback functionality.
  • Web or Native Application: Your application Prove integrates into.

​
Prove Identity Flow

  • The Start call generates the OAuth token, initiates the session, and indicates whether the session is desktop or mobile.
  • The client-side SDK initiates the Prove possession check.
    • For Mobile
      • SMS OTP authenticates the customer by default.
      • If Mobile Auth is enabled, the SDK completes silent authentication with fallback to SMS OTP to authenticate a customer.
    • For Desktop
      • The SDK sends a fortified link within an SMS message to authenticate the customer, known as Instant Link.
  • The Validate call indicates whether Prove can authenticate the phone number (SIM key) being used to complete a possession check.
  • The Complete call indicates whether the customer’s identity information is associated with the particular mobile number in real time.
