Overview

With Truv, an Order is a custom landing page for your users. Users connect their accounts to their providers when they use Orders. Send personalized invitations to your users through email or phone. Orders are a simple process for contacting your users for next steps.

Orders provide an interactive solution using our interface and UX tools. They let you contact your users and prompt them to complete their provider details.

Creating an Order

Create Orders using the Truv Dashboard, the API, or both. Each section below covers these ways to create Orders for your users.

Using your dashboard

In the Orders section of your dashboard, click on Create order to get started. Select one of the products and fill in the user’s information in the fields. Only first and last name inputs are mandatory.

With Truv, decide to send a notification or generate a unique link. Send an email or SMS with that link directly to your users.

📘

Tip

Over 75% of users complete Order requests within the first five hours. Include phone numbers in Orders to improve responsiveness and conversion through outreach.

Using the API

The Orders API reference page contains all the endpoints for managing the personal landing pages. Navigate your users experience with the data from pending or completed Orders.

         2. first_name & last_name: Enter the first and last name of the applicant
         3. For Direct Deposit Switch (DDS) - the fields are located under the account object inside the employers object:

            2. bank_name: Enter the bank name of the corresponding bank.
      2. Optional fields
         1. SSN: Enter the last 4 digits or all 9 digits of the Social Security Number if you'd like Truv to check if the SSN matches that from the payroll system.
         2. email & phone: Enter either email and/or mobile phone number for Truv to send the Truv notification to the applicant. If you leave this section blank, you would need to retrieve the Truv verification link from the JSON response under "share_url".
