1. Vendor’s app client requires Customer to login to Betfair using Interactive Login method.  
2. Betfair returns Customer’s Session Token to the Vendor’s app client.
3. Vendor’s app client calls getVendorClientId citing Customer’s session token from step 1.
4. Betfair returns Customer’s vendorClientId.
5. Vendor’s App client sends Customer’s vendorClientId to Vendor’s app server.
6. Vendor’s app server calls getApplicationSubscriptionHistory citing Vendor’s Session Token, Vendor’s App Key, and the vendorClientID from step 4.
7. Betfair returns Customer’s complete history for the Vendor’s app (as identified by the app key cited in step 5).  If an empty list is returned then the customer has no current or previous subscription history (i.e. Customer is entirely new).
