Verifications

Your platform checks email addresses, phone numbers and sign-in IPs to keep accounts genuine. The Verifications area is the audit trail of those checks — useful to understand why an address was accepted or rejected, or where a sign-in came from.

There are three sections, one per type — Email, Phone and IP — each with the same shape:

• Overview — summary figures for that type of verification.
• Search — find verification records (by address/number/IP, status, date,

consumer…).

• History — a dated log of every check, with the detail returned by the

verification service.

What each check looks at:

• Email — valid format, mail servers (MX/DNS), and whether the address is

disposable or a throwaway.

• Phone — number format and country/carrier information.
• IP — geolocation (country, region, city), the network/organisation, and

whether it looks like a proxy.

When verification actually happens depends on your security settings: email and phone verification are required of consumers only when you switch them on; IP information is recorded with sign-ins. This area lets you review the results after the fact — it doesn't change a consumer's status itself (you do that from the consumer record).
