How Account Ownership Works

This third tier of verification determines whether the following provided attributes for consumer or business bank accounts matches data tied to the account being verified: Consumer Accounts:
  • First Name (required)
  • Last Name (required)
  • Phone Number
  • SSN
Business Accounts:
  • Business Name (required)
  • Phone Number
  • Tax ID
Users request an ownership check using the type parameter of the Verify API.
Note: Either the person or business object is required in order to run an Account Ownership via Name Match check.
EnumDescription
status_ownershipThis request will first make a status check before making an ownership check.
control_ownershipThis request will make a control check in addition to a status check before making an ownership check.
An ownership verification also includes an account status verification. Additionally, you may also include an account control verification.
