Geo IP Verification

Geo IP Verification provides an overall risk and reputation assessment of an IP address associated with an end user.

Supported Credentials

The IP address can be uploaded as Prepared Data. In this case you are expected to obtain the IP address prior to initiating the Jumio transaction. For example you can use to use Geo IP Verification as a standalone service by using workflow key 10118 and uploading the IP address as prepared data.

Alternatively, if you are using Geo IP Verification in a workflow that requires other credentials, and are acquiring those credentials through the Web Client or one of the SDKs, Jumio can obtain the IP address from the end-user device with no additional calls from your integration. For example you can use Geo IP Verification along with the standard IDIV service by using workflow key 10120. The end-user experience with the web client or SDK integration will be the same as the standard IDIV service, and no additional integration effort is required.
