Integrating with Pine Labs Online, you can now include an IMEI verification flow, enabling merchants to verify product IMEI or serial numbers during the payment. This feature ensures compliance and enhances efficiency by integrating IMEI verification.

You can use this Pine Labs Online IMEI Validation API to Block and Unblock.

Integrating with IMEI validations allows you to secure operations in EMI or loan-based purchases.

📘 Note:

Once the refund request is successfully processed, the product IMEI will also be unblocked in the backend.

For a full refund, all IMEIs linked to the product are automatically unblocked. For a partial refund, you must provide the product_imei that needs to be unblocked.

IMEI validation applies only to brand-specific SKUs.

Each SKU can have only one associated IMEI burn.
