Overview

The Aerosync API enables the validation of user identities by retrieving information stored in their financial institution records. Through the Identity feature, you can retrieve information such as a user's phone number, email address, mailing address, name and more. This functionality is valuable for confirming the accuracy of user-provided information by cross-referencing it with a trusted source, or for automatically populating account details during the prefilling process.
