Test Data
Real ID numbers can only be used in the production environment. To gain access to the production environment please complete the steps outlined in the section Submit Your Company KYC. Then follow the simple steps outlined in the section Go Live.
Below we also provide ID test data that allows you to run an unlimited number of tests in the sandbox environment. The test data will have the same JSON structure as the production environment.

To test error conditions you can modify the final digit in the id number. All the id types follow the format in the table below, but the final digit determines what response is received.
Test data is only available for use in the Sandbox. If test data is used in Production an error will be returned with ResultCode 1014 and the ResultText as "Unsupported ID number format".

Customising ID Test Data Response Values
You can customise our ID test data response fields in Sandbox. This means that you can specify the value we return for some specific fields in the Sandbox environment for our supported id types e.g. you can state that you want Nelson Mandela returned as the full name for Nigerian Driver’s License. Customising test data response is especially useful when testing different textual matching scenarios for our Identity Verification product or getting a successful response for Enhanced KYC + SmartSelfie™. You can return a custom value for any of our standardised top level keys for any of our supported ID types.
