FAQs
What is Setu Identity?
Setu Identity is a bundle of products that you can easily integrate with to verify your customers, whether they are individuals or businesses.
The bundle offers multiple types of verification blocks—DigiLocker documents, Aadhaar verification, bank account verification and PAN checks—from which you can choose one or more that suit your needs.
With the Setu Identity bundle, you only need to work with Setu, but can make use of multiple data blocks that you need to integrate with.
Who does Setu partner with to identify or verify customers?
Setu works closely with multiple certified government entities like NSDL, UIDAI, Digilocker and provides verified data only.
How do I choose between API integration and pre-built screens?
By default, we offer simple REST APIs for integration and provide responses in JSON. You can refer to our API Docs and start testing APIs once you have the clientID
and clientSecret
for your organisation.
However, some data blocks, like Aadhaar verification or bank account verification, require a user to complete multiple steps on screen(s). In such cases, Setu provides an alternative to API integration with customisable pre-built screens.
Our pre-built UI connects to our APIs and can be customised with your branding. Some benefits—
Cut integration time
Manage desktop/mobile responsiveness
Handle error/success scenarios
We also continuously work towards improving this experience to suit the needs of your customers, with minimal clicks and redirections.
