How fast can a new hire start?

The candidate side takes minutes on their phone, and most checks come back same-day — fast enough to interview at lunch and schedule for the weekend.

Does this work with ban-the-box laws?

Yes — you control when in your process the check runs, and the flow's disclosures and adverse action steps support fair-chance requirements. Your counsel sets the policy; vID keeps it consistent.

We run 30 locations — can managers order checks?

Yes. Set up your organization once, add location managers as admins, and every check lands in one account with one bill.

What does it cost at our volume?

$25 flat pay-as-you-go, with volume discounts past 25 checks a year and subscriptions for predictable volume.

Is this FCRA compliant?

Yes. Checks run through PBSA-accredited partners, with required disclosures, authorization, and adverse action support built in.

Screening requirements.

Fair-chance and ban-the-box laws govern timing

Many states and cities regulate when in the hiring process you may run or consider a background check, and some require individualized assessments. Your locations determine your workflow — configure screening timing to your strictest market.

FCRA at volume

Every candidate needs a standalone disclosure, written authorization, and the two-step adverse action process — templated into the vID flow so speed doesn't cost compliance.

All checks run through PBSA-accredited partners with FCRA disclosures and consent built into the candidate flow.
