Response Keys
| Key | Type | What it tells you |
|---|---|---|
status |
string | Order lifecycle: SUCCESS, PENDING or FAILED. Describes the order, not the verification — a charged call that came back negative is a completed order. |
status_code |
int | The HTTP status, echoed into the body. |
charged |
bool | The authority on billing. Never infer it from the HTTP status. |
success |
bool | The verification outcome. Independent of charged. |
message |
string | Human-readable text. For display and logs — do not parse it. |
message_code |
string | Machine-readable reason from a fixed vocabulary. Branch on this. |
order_id |
string | Present once a call reached the provider; quote it on a support ticket. Its absence means nothing was billed. |
data.result |
object | The verification payload for this endpoint. |

|---|---|---|---|---|

ACCEPTED |
Yes | 202 | PENDING | Queued at the provider. Quote the order_id to collect the result. |
