Prove Pre-Fill for Consumers solution

Prove Pre-Fill for Consumers streamlines online account creation by filling forms with verified consumer data tied to an authenticated phone number. Businesses reduce abandonment, improve conversion, and strengthen fraud defenses by combining possession checks, identity signals, and consistent evaluation under Prove’s Global Fraud Policy. The underlying idea is simple: once the consumer has proved possession of the number, you can reuse Prove-backed attributes instead of asking them to re-type sensitive data at the edge of your funnel—so you cut friction without relying on self-reported PII alone. Pre-Fill for Consumers is not a full KYC program or the only control you need for regulated onboarding. It gives you structured /v3/verify outcomes and identity attributes when verification succeeds, so your application can pre-fill, step up, or stop according to your own policies and any other checks you run in parallel.
Pre-Fill for Consumers is available only in the United States.

How fits together

At a high level, rests on Authenticate, Verify, and optionally Manage. They describe how the real-time product is structured, not a rigid checklist: your integration may combine or revisit them depending on channel, risk, and whether the customer already has a bound Prove Key.

Authenticate (possession)

Authenticate means proving possession of the phone number. Your app integrates Prove’s Authenticate SDK (Web, iOS, or Android) so the customer can complete possession on the device. That establishes trust in the device and number before or alongside your server-side checks. End-to-end setup—including how your back end coordinates with Prove—is covered in the Authenticate guide.

Verify

Verify is your back end calling POST /v3/verify with the verification type and the inputs your flow requires to obtain a verification result and, when successful, identifiers such as proveId that you can persist for later calls, support, and linking to other Prove capabilities. End-to-end setup, Sandbox testing, and response handling are in the Verify guide.

Manage

Manage applies when a verified identity meets Prove’s Global Fraud Policy: it can be enrolled for continuous monitoring of phone and related identity changes. Number changes, disconnects, and coverage moves are signals you want after day one, not only at signup. That path is documented under the Manage guide. Webhook notifications for those phone and identity change events are available in the US.
