SQS Reference

• Users Events

Task O4 - Review Data Requirements for User Creation

Review Data points necessary in the API Reference - Create User Mandatory Information and Structure and determine if already collected or stored, is it retrievable?

Data Validation for Task 4

• When capturing Customer Address, it must be a physical location it cannot be a PO Box, this is a mandatory requirement

• When creating a new user in the Request payload there is a name/value pair "findersFee" it is a Boolean (true/false) field that must be set to "false"

• Beginning with User Creation if LPMA accounts are necessary the User creation and subsequent steps have been reviewed if applicable

• Previously Stored Customer Information - Many Partners already collect, and store customer information as part of an existing product, if so, a majority of the minimum required points of information can be leveraged from the existing Platform and passed via API to reduce the number of customer onboarding questions.

Brokerage Specific Questions

LPMA - User/Customer Creation for Limited Purpose Margin Accounts

The “Limited Purpose” signifies the enabling of an instant increase in buying power without increasing financial leverage; this distinction is what makes the account different from a traditional Margin account

For (Limited Purpose Margin Account) Workflows for "Individual Funding," "Bulk Funding," or "Trade Settlement you will need to incorporate 4 items:

1. Add the following “documents” object to the User Create Request Payload

“documents”: [
        {
            “type”: “MARGIN_DISCLOSURE”,
             “data”: {
                “marginAgreement”: true
              }
         }
      ]

2. When sending in the POST call to create Account in Step 3 please make the following changes:

• The name/value pair: tradingType.name = “MARGIN”
• Add this name/value pair to your "create account" request payload if not already included:
  leverage = 1

3. Please use the LPMA Specific “Disclosure Widget” LPMA Disclosure Widget

4. Pattern Day Trade (PDT) logic integration: for margin accounts the Partner will
incorporate logic to capture and notify customers of PDT violations (vs GFV - good faith violations, for cash accounts)

Task O5 - Create a User

You will then send DriveWealth your customer’s data via API (request), this action creates the User in the DW system and allows you to create a User's account next. You should receive a valid response when creating a User via API

Sanitizing Customer Data

In order to perform background checks during the KYC and AML processes it's imperative to provide sanitized and accurate customer information:

Full legal name

• "firstname" and "lastname" properties should ALWAYS match the full legal name used on their official government ID. Short hand or spelling errors ("Liz" rather than "Elizabeth"), can result in KYC failure.

• For multiple names include them in the "firstname" property, and keep the "lastname" property to a single name.

Example: Full legal name - Sita Maha Lakssmi Ramadugula via the API as:

"firstname" : "Sita Maha Lakshmi"
"lastname" : "Ramadugula"

Address information

There are many free third party services that provide a simple API to verify and collect customer address (ex: Google Places, USPS Address API's). These services can enable customers to input short hand address names and have the API return back possible address values; this can reducing time spent on-boarding, and standardized address details.

Identification number

In the IDENTIFICATION_INFO Data Object the value for the field "data.value" provided in the 'create user request' is what is included on the W9 or W-8BEN that is filed with the US IRS. It's important the value provided is the same value the customer uses to file their taxes locally, else they cannot report their taxes at the end of the year due to ID miss-match.
