The Bank Account Verification (BANV) product verifies that the bank account and branch code are valid.
There are two types which incur different costs.
- BANV (real-time response) - for Bank Account Number Verification Real Time; 60 Second Response
- BANVR (Batch) - for Bank Account Number Verification: 120 Minute response
Bank Account Number Verification (BAVN) can be done via manual upload and API. Attached to this article you'll find:
At the time the AVS batch is processed, all but the CDV failures will be executed.
Check Digit Verification (CDV) is a preliminary check on account validity. The combination of six digit bank branch number and the bank account number are validated to ensure that they satisfy the check digit rules that each bank has. Passing this test does not necessarily mean that the bank account is valid and open. However, failing it does mean that there is no such an account.
Whatever the message, you still need to go back to your customer to get the correct bank branch (the universal code for each bank almost always works) and the correct bank account number.
