FAQs

A credit check is a soft inquiry of an individual’s credit file. A “soft inquiry” doesn’t impact the credit score. Credit reports include tradelines, bankruptcies, public records and collections information, and a credit score.

Credit scores don’t appear on reports for pre-employment screening. Where permitted, credit checks should only be ordered for reasons such as positions at financial institutions, managerial roles, and roles with regular access to proprietary or financial data.

To invite someone to complete a credit check, all you need is their email address.

1. A secure link is emailed to the person you want to run the credit check on.

2. The person consents and inputs their information. The most recent address is used, unless it’s been less than two months.

3. Certn sends the inquiry to the credit bureau. The results are available in your Certn dashboard.

The average US credit check takes 60 seconds.
