Every identity check passes, and the customer still defaults on purpose or disputes a legitimate charge. Verification is necessary but not sufficient.
Verification stops fake people getting in. It does very little against a real account being stolen. Know which problem each control solves.
A synthetic identity stitches real and fake data into a person who does not exist. Verifying each element against its source pulls the stitching apart.
A convincing forged PAN card or RC will pass a human eyeball. It will not pass a lookup against the issuing database. That is the whole point.
You should never test an identity integration against real data or your live balance. Mock mode gives you deterministic responses for free.
Most verification checks are synchronous, but some are not. When a result lands later, a webhook beats a polling loop.
When each call costs money, a careless retry loop can double your bill and corrupt your data. The patterns that keep retries safe.
The three status codes you will actually hit in production, what each means, and the right client behaviour for each.
