Frequently Asked Questions

Common developer queries about integrating the Common Account Detection API.

1. What is the Common Account Detection API?

The Common Account Detection API is a security tool that identifies if a phone number or user identity is associated with "common" or high-risk profiles—such as known duplicate accounts, bot-generated IDs, or recycled numbers used for promotional abuse.

2. How does it help prevent fraud?

By cross-referencing global digital footprints, the API flags entities that appear across multiple platforms under suspicious circumstances, helping you block serial refunders and multi-accounting before they impact your margins.

3. What data does the API return?

It provides a risk score (0-100), a "commonality" flag, and metadata regarding the account's history, such as its first-seen date and presence on high-risk global databases.

4. How fast are the analysis results?

Our high-speed infrastructure ensures a response time of less than 200ms, making it fast enough to be integrated directly into your registration or checkout button-click event.

5. Is it compliant with global data laws?

Yes. We use anonymized hashing and privacy-first query methods. We do not store your users' personal data, ensuring full compliance with GDPR, CCPA, and other regional privacy regulations.

6. Can I process legacy databases in bulk?

Certainly. The API supports batch processing for database scrubbing, allowing you to clean millions of records to identify and remove duplicate or fraudulent users from your existing systems.

7. What happens if a number is flagged?

The decision is yours. You can choose to block the request, trigger additional 2FA (Two-Factor Authentication), or flag the account for manual review within your own admin dashboard.

8. Does it detect virtual or VoIP numbers?

Yes, our engine specifically identifies non-fixed VoIP and virtual numbers often used to create temporary "common" accounts for automated attacks or fake signups.

9. Which languages are supported?

We provide SDKs and code snippets for all major languages, including Node.js, Python, Ruby, Java, and C#, ensuring you can deploy the protection in minutes.

10. How do I get started?

Simply sign up for an API key on our developer portal. We offer a free tier with complimentary credits so you can test the accuracy of our detection engine in your production environment.
