Validate a counterparty's account name against their account details when adding a counterparty or making a transfer to a new or existing counterparty.

:::warning The CoP check is not a complete fraud-prevention tool, and it does not guarantee the person is who they claim to be. It only confirms that the name and account details your provide match the bank's records.

Even if the counterparty's details match, you should still exercise due caution when transferring funds. :::

:::note[Availability & Sandbox behaviour]

• This feature is only available to businesses in the supported regions. Additionally, to get access to CoP in the UK, eligible businesses must contact Revolut API Support.
• In Sandbox, this feature is only available for testing. While incomplete or invalid requests will return production-like error responses, complete and valid requests in Sandbox do not undergo real validation and will always return cannot_be_checked. :::

The validation relies on different underlying services, depending on the recipient's payment scheme (region and currency). These factors determine which fields you must provide and what response you get.

• For examples, refer to the request body samples.
• For more information, see the guides: Validate an account name (CoP/VoP).
