About IdentityVerificationCost.com
Independent cost reference for workforce background checks, tenant screening, and consumer identity verification. Published by Digital Signet, edited by Oliver Wakefield-Smith.
Why this site exists
Procurement teams researching identity verification cost typically hit a wall: half the leading vendors do not publish per-check rates publicly, and the half that do bury the relevant numbers under marketing copy. Third-party comparison sites republish unattributed rates that often disagree with the vendor's own page. We built this site to close that gap with a strict provenance rule: every dollar figure must trace to a vendor's own published page, fetched on a known date, and quote-only vendors are explicitly labelled rather than fabricated.
Editorial standards
- No vendor sponsorships. No vendor pays for placement in the calculator, the matrix, or the per-vendor dossiers.
- No affiliate links. Vendor URLs go to the vendor's pricing page or sales contact.
- No email capture. No newsletter signup, no download-the-PDF gate, no demo request form.
- Quarterly re-verification. Every vendor source is re-fetched at least once per quarter.
- Quote-only is honest. Six of eleven vendors covered here hide pricing. We label that openly.
