SignCareAPI Docs

Welcome to SignCare API

The SignCare External API is a unified B2B gateway for 60+ identity, financial, and eSign verification providers across India.

What is SignCare External API?

SignCare's External API is a B2B gateway that aggregates 60+ verification providers behind a single, consistent interface. Instead of integrating separately with each government ID database, biometric service, credit bureau, or signing provider, you integrate once with SignCare and route through us.

We handle the underlying providers, retries, failovers, tokens, and compliance. You focus on your product.

Who is this for?

SignCare is built for B2B consumers — banks, NBFCs, fintechs, insurers, real-estate platforms, lending apps, HR-tech, and anyone doing customer onboarding or document signing at scale. It is not for end-user self-service — your users never see SignCare.
