Post go-live on 30 November 2022, we are seeing less than a quarter of verifications cascading to AEC saving customers the cost of DVS transaction fees for unnecessary checks. NOTE: how you capture your identity data, what rules you have configured and how you are integrated to greenID

Match rate impacts
With the introduction of a cascading check, fewer verifications will utilise AEC data. However, those that do are likely to have less data available for matching. For example, they may have gaps in their data due to being young, or they may be older without a recent credit history. Less data or gaps in data will make it harder to match against AEC data.
In addition, DVS has tighter matching criteria on DOB, name and address fields,
...
the information held by AEC must match exactly to the data supplied.
Some specific fields
...
that may cause matching errors include:
DOB
Middle name
Building name

Flat number
Street types

Street name
State
Postcode
Suburb
