Age Verify (CAMARA)

v0.2

Check whether a customer is eligible for age-restricted products and services. Vodafone only holds age details for certain customers, and there are some limitations: The MSISDN must be a postpaid Vodafone account. The MSISDN must not belong to a family account (i.e. accounts with two or more MSISDNs), or a business account.

This API follows the CAMARA specification.

Select The Correct MNO For The Mobile Number

You must use a discovery service to determine which Mobile Network Operator's (MNO's) API you should use for each individual mobile number (MSISDN). This ensures API requests are efficiently directed to the correct MNO. This service is not provided by Vodafone.

A Three-legged OAuth Flow

Age Verify (CAMARA) uses a three-legged OAuth flow. A three-legged OAuth process involves three parties: the end-user (or resource owner), the client (the third-party application), and the server (or authorization server):

  1. Get an authorization code
  2. Exchange the authorization code for an access token
  3. Call the Age Verify resource API

For more information on OAuth, see OAuth 2.0 RFC 6749, section 4.1 (external website).

MSISDNs For The Sandbox Environment

In the Vodafone API Sandbox, specific Mobile Station International Subscriber Directory Numbers (MSISDNs) are provided to test various scenarios across different APIs. Each MSISDN is designed to simulate a particular condition or response, allowing developers to test their applications comprehensively.

  • When using these MSISDNs, ensure your application correctly interprets and handles each Response, providing appropriate responses or actions based on the simulated conditions.
  • These test numbers are designed to help you validate your application's robustness and reliability when interacting with Vodafone's APIs under different conditions.

By thoroughly testing with these MSISDNs, you can ensure that your application behaves as expected across a wide range of real-world scenarios, leading to a more reliable and user-friendly experience.
