team members discussing instant employment verification


Instant, accurate employment history – straight from the source.

Built for accuracy. Integrated with HMRC. Verified in real time.

Verifying employment shouldn’t slow down your hiring process. Our HMRC-integrated Instant activity verification delivers up to five years of accurate employment data, direct from the source. It’s secure, consent-based, and ready in seconds, helping you onboard with confidence while staying fully compliant.

Why use Instant activity verification?

Traditional employment checks can be slow, manual, and prone to drop-off. Waiting on references or chasing employers can delay onboarding and frustrate candidates.

This solution removes that friction by connecting directly to HMRC -  the UK’s national tax authority with the candidate’s permission, giving you fast, reliable employment history - without the delays

Benefits of
Instant employment verification

We estimate that up to 85% of UK verifications can be done instantly, so what about the rest?

The smarter way to screen
How does it work?

Once the candidate provides consent and logs into their HMRC account via a secure portal, you’ll receive:

  • Employer names
  • Start and end dates
  • PAYE reference numbers
  • Optional income and tax data

This enables accurate validation of employment history, including any undeclared gaps or discrepancies.

Instant activity verification gives you what traditional checks can’t: immediate, accurate employment history direct from HMRC. It’s a faster, more secure way to verify candidates - helping you make better decisions, quicker.
