Why this mattersVerification results work best when they are readable signals with limits, recency, review paths, and respectful user choices.

Verification context

Rate limits are not only an engineering concern. They affect what an end user sees when a verification request is delayed, queued, retried, or paused for review.

Buyers should design client behavior around idempotency keys, retry backoff, status polling, and webhook confirmation. A repeated button tap should not create multiple checks for the same person and purpose.

Operating note

Good API documentation should name the limit behavior and the safe retry pattern so integration teams do not guess during production traffic.

Key takeaways

  • Use idempotency for create calls.
  • Back off retries predictably.
  • Tell users when a check is queued.
