How does Bank Verification work?
Our tools are designed to work at the point of capture. At the same time your customer enters their sort code and account number, we simultaneously check if the details are correct, and the account is direct debit capable and CHAPs supported. So you will soon know if the customer is able to offer direct debit and credit card payments.
As the volume of online banking transactions increases rapidly, so does the need for our next-generation bank account validation, reducing payment errors, minimising fraud, and providing a better customer experience.
With market-leading technology, we instantly turn a simple sort code and account number into an array of useful information – such as their Bank Identifier Code (BIC), IBAN and full banking address.
