Business data platform company Kukon announced on the 24th that it will provide the Supreme Court certificate viewing application programming interface (API) to KB Kookmin Card's simple payment service KB Pay. This service supports non-face-to-face membership registration and check card issuance for minors.


With the introduction of this API, parents using Kookmin Card can register their minor children aged 12 to 13 on the KB Pay app and apply for check card issuance via mobile for minors aged 12 to under 17. Previously, parents had to go through procedures such as document issuance and visiting branches to issue check cards for their minor children, but now essential documents such as basic certificates and family relation certificates can be automatically submitted through the non-face-to-face legal representative consent service.


Kukon provides APIs not only to Kookmin Card but also to many card companies including Lotte, Shinhan, Hana, and NH Nonghyup Card.


Kim Jong-hyun, CEO of Kukon, said, "As the age for using financial services gradually lowers, Kukon provides various APIs to help financial companies easily attract minor customers," adding, "We will continue to support financial companies so that they can successfully conduct business targeting minors, who are future potential customers."
