Verification Statuses - Paxos Documentation

Address verification is in Developer Preview. Endpoints and schemas are subject to change. To participate, contact Paxos Support.

PENDING

The verification is awaiting completion. What that looks like depends on the method:

Method	What you need to do	How Paxos resolves it
`SIGNATURE`	Sign `signature_verification.message` and submit via Submit Signature	Approves immediately on a valid signature
`SMALL_DEPOSIT`	Send the exact amount shown in `small_deposit_verification.amount` from the address under verification to `small_deposit_verification.deposit_address`	Approves once Paxos detects the correct amount from the address

For SIGNATURE and SMALL_DEPOSIT, you must complete the verification before expires_at or the verification will expire.

EXPIRED

The verification window elapsed before the verification was completed. EXPIRED is the only terminal failure state.

Method	Window
`SIGNATURE`	48 hours from creation
`SMALL_DEPOSIT`	48 hours from creation

Create a new verification via Create Address Verification and start again. Expired verification IDs cannot be reused.

MANUAL review is handled off-platform and does not expire through the public API.
