Video KYC | Location unavailable

Modified on Thu, 20 Feb at 11:23 AM

Problem Statement:

During a Video KYC (VKYC) session, soon after fetching a customer, the Agent/VCO/Maker may encounter an error message as in the screenshot below stating: "Location Unavailable"

Oops, this was unexpected. The location of the customer couldn't be captured. As per the regulations, the call cannot be conducted without location data.




Cause:

This error occurs when the customer's location data is not accessible which can happen due to one of the following reasons:

  • The location permission was not allowed.
  • Location permission is restricted due to device-level privacy settings.
  • A pop-up requesting location permission is blocked by the browser.



Resolution:

To resolve this problem and ensure a smooth VKYC experience, users can follow these steps:

1. Enable Location Access: Instruct the customer to allow location access on their device and browser settings.

2. Rejoin the Session: Ask the customer to disconnect and rejoin the VKYC session.

3. Refresh the Page: The agent should refresh the VKYC portal page.


If the issue persists despite following the above stepsplease reach out to our support team by writing to support@hyperverge.co with the following details :

1. HyperVerge Transaction ID

2. Browser name and browser version used to initiate VKYC

3. Device type (Android/iOS/PC/Mac)

4. Any relevant screenshots or error messages
