GF Loqate Bank Verification

Goal

GF Loqate Bank Verification verifies Gravity Forms bank details with Loqate bank verification API.

It validates the bank details (branch sort codes and bank account numbers):
– indicates whether the account number and sort code are valid
– indicates whether the account can accept direct debits. Certain accounts (e.g. savings) will not accept direct debits

Usage

1. Get your service key from Loqate
   1. Register an Loqate account
   2. Add Bank Verification
   3. Get the Service key
2. Plugin Setting
   1. Head to Form » Settings » Bank Verification
   2. Enter your Loqate bank verification service key
   3. A green check appears if the service key is valid
3. Form Fields Setting
   1. Add 2 Single Line Text fields
      • Sort Code
      • Account Number
   2. Mark both fields required
   3. Set their Custom CSS Class to:
      • gflbv-sort-code-is-correct
      • gflbv-account-number-is-correct

For Developers

Fork the plugin on GitHub.

What are the minimum requirements

• PHP v7.2
• WordPress v4.9.10
• Gravity Forms v2.4.14.4

Does it support checking for Direct Debit capability?

Yes. Certain accounts (e.g. savings) will not accept direct debits. To verify bank details are both correct and Direct Debit capable, set the fields’ Custom CSS Class to:
– gflbv-sort-code-is-correct gflbv-sort-code-direct-debit-capable
– gflbv-account-number-is-correct gflbv-account-number-direct-debit-capable

Does it cache Loqate API responses?

Yes. Loqate API responses are cached in WordPress transients for an hour.

To clear caches: wp transient delete --all

Or, re-save service key on the setting page.

Will you add support for older PHP versions?

Never! This plugin will only work on actively supported PHP versions.

Don’t use it on end of life or security fixes only PHP versions.
