Customers represent your borrowers within Secure Payments. Here's what you need to know about creating customers:

  • The customers entity holds customer information within Secure Payments.
  • Creating a customer via this request will store the borrower's information only in Secure Payments—not the Loan Management System. If you'd like borrower information to match in both systems, create a customer via the LMS API ↗. Creating a customer within LMS will simultaneously create a customer within Secure Payments.
  • Once a customer has been created, Payment Profile information can be linked to the customer via the following separate requests:
  • Some fields are required to create a customer, while others are required if the customer will be associated with a Card. Take note of the payload parameter details to ensure you cover all of your bases.

For an example of how customers work within the Secure Payments UI, take a look at our Secure Payments – Customers ↗ article.
