Background verification services
Pick the situation you are in. Each service runs the checks that matter for it, the person being checked agrees first on their own phone, and the report says plainly what was and was not established.
Checking a person
Tenants, hires, household staff and prospective matches. The person consents on their own phone.
Checking a business
Suppliers and counterparties, checked against the identifiers they gave you.
For your own product
Consent capture through an API, with or without background checks.
A dashed tag is a check whose source is not connected yet. It still appears on the report, marked not available, so a missing result is never read as a clear one.
Which checks each service uses
The status column is read from the live configuration when this page is built, not written by hand, so it cannot claim a source we have not connected.

Live means the source is connected and answering. Format test means the number is checked against its published rules, which catches an invented or mistyped number, but no registry confirms it belongs to the person. Not connected means the check is reported as not available. Where each answer comes from.
Not sure which one fits?
Most people start with an Instant Check and move up when they have more identifiers to work with. Write to us if your case does not fit any of these.
