The confirmation mode controls the contact identity step inside a verification. It does not change the organization boundary or the bank account details you send; it changes how the individual is confirmed. For most first integrations, start with kyc.

Decision table

If you are unsure, use kyc. You can still use attribution_id to link later verifications for the same payee, and ezyshield can reduce friction on later flows when previous identity evidence can be reused.

How the choice affects implementation

For kyc and biometric, you can either let ezyshield send the SMS or deliver the returned individual_confirmation_url yourself. For skip, no contact confirmation link is needed.
biometric requires individual_portrait_image. kyc and skip must not send that field.
Send a stable attribution_id when the payee exists in your system. It lets you retrieve related verifications and helps keep repeat verification history connected to the same record.

Mode guides

KYC verification

Best default when ezyshield should establish identity.

Biometric verification

Use when you already have a suitable identity portrait.

Skip contact confirmation

Use only when identity assurance is handled outside ezyshield.
