Co-Applicant Details
A Co-applicant is an additional applicant added for a retail application, with the same access as the main applicant. The Co-Applicant Details section is displayed only for the Retail Origination application flow.
This section contains personal information, address details, identity details, income, and employment details (if applicable) of the co-applicants.
UX Overview
This section provides an overview of the Co-Applicant section.

The Co-Applicant screen contains two parts, Co-Applicant Question and Co-Applicant Information.

On click of Continue, the Income and Employment section appears, if the Income and Employment Details section is enabled in Spotlight for the chosen product. Provide the income and employment details and then click Continue.
Click Continue button on the last co-applicant's Income & Employment section/ Address & Identification details section (as applicable), the control navigates to the Additional Questions screen.
- It is always assumed that a co-applicant is a new customer. Based on research, most of the existent co-applicants share the same credentials with the main-applicants, which impede the app to security validate a co-applicant. Because of this, the app treats co-applicant as a new customer.
- In case of mobile or tablet devices, you can scan either a driver's license or a passport as your proof of identity. Your details are scanned by using a third-party API (Authentic ID is supported out of the box) and are automatically fetched from the scanned document. For more information, refer ID Scan Procedure. However, in case of Desktop web application, you must enter the details manually in the Personal Information section and the Address & Identification Details section.
- A co-applicant cannot resume an application by using his personal information. An application can be resumed only with the main-applicant’s credentials.
- In Temenos DigitalSpotlight, an application cannot be searched by using co-applicant’s name. A co-applicant can be searched only as an individual entity, but you cannot see the related applications.
In the backend, after you provide co-applicant's personal information, a prospect is created in the Lead entity of the Origination Data Storage Microservice. After the application is submitted and approved, the prospect entry from the ODMS is removed and a customer id is created in the Party Microservice. Moreover, while creating an account, the application ID is linked to the co-applicant (Party) ID in the Origination Data Microservice. On the account creation event at the Core, the account is linked to the main applicant as Owner and co-applicant as Joint Owner.
Furthermore, both the main applicant and the co-applicant will receive an email about status of the application and enrollment details, once the application is approved. The Co-applicant can also enroll through the same Online Banking or Retail Banking link received in the email.
