WHY IT'S BETTER

Gain Reliable Insight into Candidate Financial Behavior

Credit history reveals how applicants manage obligations and financial stress. Our checks provide a clear, standardized view of payment history, debts, bankruptcies, and public records, helping you make informed decisions when hiring for trust-sensitive roles.

Secure, Compliant Credit Verification Engine

We access trusted, compliant credit data sources with candidate consent. Our process ensures data privacy, adheres to regulatory standards, and delivers a consistent report that aligns with screening compliance requirements.

Risk Flagging & Fraud Prevention for Sensitive Roles

When a role involves financial oversight or access to money, credit checks help highlight risk indicators such as bankruptcies, high debt, liens, or unpaid accounts. This improves risk management and reduces exposure to fraud.

COMMON CONCERNS ANSWERED See How Our Approach Supports Compliance and Consistency

Why use credit history in employment screening?

Credit history provides insight into financial responsibility. For roles involving money handling or high trust, it helps evaluate risk and decision making.

What information appears in a credit history check?

It may include payment patterns, outstanding debt, liens, bankruptcies, public records, credit obligations, and account history. Employers do not receive credit scores.

Is candidate consent required?

Yes. Employers must obtain written consent before conducting credit screening and must follow adverse action rules if results impact hiring decisions.

Can poor credit history disqualify a candidate?

Not automatically. Credit checks should be used only when relevant to the role and applied consistently across similar positions.

How quickly are credit checks completed?

Automated checks often return results within hours. Manual verification may take one to two business days depending on record availability.

Can credit checks integrate with an ATS or HRIS?

Yes. Our platform supports seamless integration so HR teams can order and view results through existing systems.
