Common questions about Aadhaar Masking & Document Security APIs
What is Aadhaar masking?
Masking hides the first eight digits of the twelve-digit Aadhaar number on a card image and leaves the last four visible. The Aadhaar Masking API takes the document image and returns a redacted copy that is compliant to store.
Why should stored Aadhaar copies be masked?
UIDAI guidelines expect organisations that collect Aadhaar to keep the number out of stored copies, and a masked image is the accepted way to do that. Masking at upload time means an unmasked copy never reaches your storage in the first place.
How does face match work?
The Face Match API compares two facial images, such as a selfie and the photo on an ID document, and returns a similarity score. Pair it with the Face Liveness API, which checks that the selfie is a live person rather than a photo, video or mask.
What is document watermarking for?
A watermark stamps a document copy with text you choose, so a KYC document shared for one purpose cannot be passed off for another. It deters duplication, forgery and unauthorised reuse of the images you hold.
Which fraud and risk checks are available?
Risk Analyzer flags identity mismatches across a customer's data points and scores the application; I4C Check screens a mobile number against the cybercrime database; IP Quality Check detects proxies, VPNs and abusive addresses; the SEBI debarred-entity check and the MNRL disconnected-number check cover regulatory and telecom risk.
Is customer data retained after a call?
Processed data is discarded within 30 days, API access can be locked to your private network, and sensitive data is handled under ISO/IEC 27001 practices, as set out on the developer resources page.
How much does Aadhaar masking cost?
Pricing is per document or verification and depends on volume. Share your expected monthly volume and the team sends a rate card.
