Welcome to the Kount Android SDK Wiki!

The Device Collector SDK Android provides a java jar file which can be used to perform Device Collection interaction with Kount for native Android applications. The SDK includes a collection of development tools that allow you to build your own customized applications in order to submit information to the Risk Inquiry System (RIS) server. Additional information regarding SDKs can be found in the RIS Software Development Kit Guide.

Kount supports authentication using either Certificates or API Keys. The SDK must be set to either use a Certificate or an API Key. Which ever option is set in the SDK will be used for authentication. If it is set to use both the API Key and a Certificate, the selection will default to the API Key. If it is set to neither, authentication will not occur.

⚠️ NOTE: The Kount Android SDK is intended for installed Android Apps - due to the restrictions imposed on Instant Apps by Android, this SDK will not execute properly with Instant Apps. The current Android Mobile SDK does not support anything below (or earlier than) v4.4.2.
