DTH Operator Check

POST /api/v1/dth/operator-check Bearer

DTH Operator Check API — Identify which DTH operator a subscriber / customer ID belongs to, without asking the customer. Returns the machine-readable operator slug (e.g. sun_direct) plus the display operator_name. The returned slug is exactly the value the DTH Advance Information API expects, so the two chain together: identify the operator first, then pull the subscriber profile. Removes the most common cause of failed DTH recharges — the customer picking the wrong operator.

What DTH Operator Check Is Used For

Operator detection

Identify the DTH operator from a customer ID alone, so the subscriber does not have to know it.

Chaining to the full profile

Feed the returned operator slug straight into the DTH Advance Information API to pull the subscriber record.

Checkout friction removal

Drop the operator dropdown from a recharge flow and remove the most common point of user error.

Failed recharge reduction

Stop transactions being sent to the wrong operator and refunded days later.
