Account Holder Details Verifications

In addition to just verifying whether the bank account details are correct, AVS-R will also verify that the account holder's initials, surname and ID number (or Company Registration Number) is correct in a near real-time response.

Real Time Account Verifications

Account Verification ensures that accounts are verified before financial transactions are processed, thus saving customers time and effort instead of paying into the wrong accounts.
