SprintCheck API · v1

Verify identity and customer data in seconds

One REST API for BVN, NIN, voter's card and face verification. Predictable JSON, a consistent response envelope, and webhooks for every completed check.

Quickstart

1
Get your API key
Create an account — a key pair is issued instantly under Developers in your dashboard.
2
Verify a customer
Call a verification endpoint with the document number and your own identifier for the customer.
3
Receive the result
The verified identity comes straight back in the response, and a verification event is also posted to your webhook.
