Card PIN Verification

Overview

The "Pin Verification" API allows financial institutions to verify the identity of a cardholder by comparing a PIN input by the cardholder to the one associated with the card on file. This API can be integrated into various platforms such as online banking, e-commerce, or point-of-sale systems to provide secure cardholder authentication

The API allows for real-time validation of the PIN entered, ensuring that only authorized cardholders have access to restricted information or are able to perform certain actions. It performs the validation of the entered PIN against the card on file to confirm the identity of the cardholder.

How It Works

The "Card PIN Verification" API allows financial institutions to verify the validity of a cardholder's PIN by comparing it to the one associated with a specific card. The API operates by receiving a request from a financial institution, which includes the card number and the PIN provided by the cardholder as parameters. The API then connects to the card issuer's systems or network to retrieve the PIN associated with the provided card number and compares it to the one provided by the cardholder. The API returns the result of the comparison to the consumer.

The API utilizes standard HTTPS protocols for receiving requests and returning responses. Financial institutions can make an HTTPS POST request to the API endpoint, including necessary parameters such as the card number and the cardholder's PIN in the request body.
