ID Number linked to Mobile number (ID number verifies Telephone number)
The API service provides an efficient and fast way to retrieve the last known Credit Bureau contact data against a South African ID number.
- Return data is the last to know ID numbers associated with the South African 13 Digit ID number.
- The input ID number will return up to the 5 last known numbers linked to that ID number, starting with the most recent.
- Access to the Developers portal requires the opening of a PBSA account and the signing of the required data sharing agreements, (see API Overview).
The pbVerify Contact ID API product gives companies the ability to match a mobile number to a possible ID number. The service requires a 10-digit South African mobile operator number to match against the credit bureau industry database.
The solution looks to match a given mobile number to any 13-digit South African identity number on file that has been updated within a preceding period of 12 months. Up to five ID numbers with full names will be returned, with the first on file being the most recent link.
