# Verify Bank Account

To verify a bank account detail, make a **POST** request to the following endpoint.

{% code overflow="wrap" %}

```url
https://api.localramp.co/v1/transaction/sell/verify-bank
```

{% endcode %}

The request takes this as the body

```javascript
{
    "account_number": "0240714625",
    "bank_code": "058",
    "currency": "NGN"
}

```

With the following header

```
x-auth-token: <PUBLIC_KEY>
```

If the API call is successful, LocalRamp returns the following response:

```javascript
{
    "status": "success",
    "data": {
        "account_name": "JALINGO G.",
        "bank_name": "Global Bank Plc",
        "account_number": "0240714625"
    }
}
```
