# Factline KYC/KYB One-Call Onboarding Check

> Factline KYC/KYB One-Call Onboarding Check is a paid API for AI agents from factline.dev, paid per call via x402, $0.01/call, status unknown (last checked 2026-10-11).

Runs parallel KYC/KYB checks — sanctions screening, email verification, phone validation, and EU VAT lookup — returning a single unified verdict (pass, review, block_review, or incomplete).

## How to call it through Zero

Zero handles the 402 payment challenge and records the run. With the Zero CLI installed (`npm i -g @zeroxyz/cli`):

```sh
zero fetch --capability factline-kyc-kyb-one-call-onboarding-check-47b9bac7
```

Example prompt: Before approving this new marketplace seller, run a full KYC/KYB check on 'Acme Trading BV' as an entity, their email info@acmetrading.nl, phone +31201234567, and EU VAT number NL859048800B01 — I need a single pass/review/block verdict.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need a single composite onboarding decision covering multiple compliance dimensions at once — sanctions, email quality, phone legitimacy, and VAT validity — without orchestrating separate API calls. Ideal for signup flows, marketplace seller approvals, payout releases, and B2B onboarding where you need a fast pass/block verdict in one step. Prefer the bulk sanctions endpoint for high-volume name-only screening, or individual Factline sub-endpoints if you only need one check type.

## Known failure modes

- Missing all optional fields results in an 'incomplete' verdict with no useful signal
- Invalid or malformed phone number returns a phone check failure or unvalidated result
- EU VAT number not found in VIES returns a VAT validation failure
- Sanctions list service unavailability may cause partial results or incomplete verdict
- Disposable email detection may produce false positives for some legitimate providers
- Name-only queries with no email/phone/VAT still consume the call but return limited signal

## How this service works

API and MCP servers that let AI agents and apps check people, companies, Dutch addresses and cars against official records: sanctions and PEP lists, 10 company registers, Dutch property, rent and RDW vehicle data. From $0.001 per call.

## Output

Returns a unified verdict of pass, review, block_review, or incomplete, along with individual sub-results for each check performed: sanctions hit details for the name, email verification signals (MX validity, disposable/role/typo flags), phone line type classification, and VIES VAT validation status.
