Create Customer Profile API

This API creates a recipient customer profile in the Green Dot instant transfer system. As part of that, the customer information goes through Green Dot's verification process configured for this partner before initiating any further API calls, ensuring all required information was passed and there are no OFAC or compliance problems with the recipient. The profile is needed before a customer links with an external card. The same customer profile can have multiple card accounts linked to it, and the target card accounts must always be linked to a target receiving customer.

Business Logic

CustomerToken – If this field is left blank
- When this field is mandatory, the partner must provide a unique value.
- When this field is optional and the request contains a CustomerToken value, the same value is used. Otherwise, the Instant Transfer Service generates a GUID as the CustomerToken.
Idempotent Check -- This check is based on the CustomerToken. If the request contains a value that already exists in the database, it returns the Record already exists error.
DB Level Encryption -- This encryption is based on DateOfBirth.
CustomerID in DB -- As per Green Dot standards, the CustomerID is a GUID that the Instant Transfer service generates.
