Yes. Valitic covers every entity in the Spanish banking system — approximately 88 million payee accounts, representing 99% of all Spanish bank accounts. The verification matches an IBAN against the account holder’s tax identification number (NIF, CIF or NIE) and returns an instant OK/KO response, typically in under one second.

Valitic is powered by Iberpay, the entity that manages Spain’s National Electronic Clearing System (SNCE). Verification is performed against official banking infrastructure — not a third-party database or scraping — ensuring the data is always current and authoritative. Powens connects directly to Iberpay via API.

Yes. Powens’ Valitic integration supports both individual and batch queries through the same API, making it suitable for bulk onboarding, periodic database cleanup, or mass payment validation. You can verify multiple IBANs in a single batch request.

No. Unlike Open Banking-based verification, Valitic requires no user interaction whatsoever. You submit the IBAN and the holder’s tax ID (NIF/CIF/NIE), and the system returns a match or mismatch in under one second. This makes it ideal for background checks, back-office validation, and recurring verification of existing customers.

Valitic is used across lending (confirming the borrower’s IBAN before loan disbursement), payments (preventing fraud on account-to-account transactions), and property management (verifying tenant bank details for rent collection). It is particularly valuable when processing high volumes of Spanish IBANs or when user interaction needs to be minimised.
