The `accountCreate` call is intended to inform Accertify when a user attempts to log in on your website.

### Timing

The API call should come to the Interceptas Platform:

- After a user attempts to create an account.
- After they pass front-end error handling, you retrieve their IP Address and User Agent.
- Before you create the account.

### Flow

![Account Create flow diagram - Gaming](https://api.archbee.com/api/optimize/C_ua77kdJRrVi_Gd-0NCF/XW0vZDNravbchRpKBOFI6-20260318-154721.png "Account Create flow - Gaming")

1. User arrives on site.
2. User creates account.
3. Frontend validation to ensure all fields are filled in properly.
4. Backend validation to ensure account doesn't exist, export compliance, and so forth.
5. Client's backend server calls Accertify.
6. Decision Tree - Create account, block, challenge, and so forth (business-driven).
