Unified Identity Verification
Securely verify identities across African borders using our sovereign data rails. Integrate biometric, corporate, and financial records in a single request.
API Authentication
LumiID uses Bearer Tokens to secure the African identity rails. Every request to our infrastructure must be signed with a valid API Key to ensure data integrity and sovereign security.
System Upgrade: Key Rotation Required
Due to our system migration, legacy keys will be deprecated. Visit your API Settings to rotate credentials.
Obtain Credentials
Generate your keys in the API Management section. We provide Test and Live keys to help you build safely.
Authorize Requests
Apply your key to the Authorization header. All requests must be performed over encrypted HTTPS TLS 1.2+ connections.
