What would your volume actually cost?
Drag the slider to your monthly verification volume. We compare our public Growth rate against the range a typical enterprise vendor quotes — with their annual minimum honestly included.
"Typical enterprise vendor" = blended range from public pricing pages and market reports, as of July 2026. Individual quotes vary; see our vendor comparisons for per-vendor numbers.
Four pricing rules we publish and keep
Most identity vendors treat pricing as a negotiation. We treat it as documentation.
Every price is public
$0 forever for Starter, $0.99 per completed check for Growth. The price you read is the price you pay — no "request a quote" wall.
No monthly minimums
Slow month? You pay for what you used. There's no floor, no commit, and your first 100 checks every month are free anyway.
No platform fees
No annual license, no seat fees, no "implementation package." The API, dashboard, hosted flow, and docs are the product — not the upsell.
Pay per completed check — never for fraud
Abandoned sessions are free. Hard declines for fraud or sanctions matches are free. You pay for verifications that actually onboard users.
FAQ
Pricing questions, answered
What counts as a completed check?
A completed check is a verification session where the user finished the hosted flow and our engine produced a decision (approve, review, or decline) with the full check detail. Sessions the user abandons partway are never billed.
Do I pay for declined or fraudulent verifications?
No. You're billed only for completed checks that return approve or review. Verifications that end in a hard decline — fraud signals, tampered barcodes, or a strong OFAC match — are not billed. We don't think you should pay full price to catch a fraudster.
Is there a monthly minimum or platform fee?
No. There is no monthly minimum, no platform fee, no seat fee, and no annual commitment on Starter or Growth. You pay $0.99 per completed check, and the first 100 checks each month are free. Enterprise contracts are custom but never include a platform fee.
How does the free Starter tier work?
Sign up at admin.idcheck.now — no credit card required — and you get 100 completed checks per month, free forever. Document verification, selfie + liveness, and OFAC screening are all included, plus sandbox access with test sessions.
When should I talk to sales about Enterprise pricing?
When you expect sustained volume above roughly 25,000 completed checks per month, or you need an SLA, custom data retention, or dedicated GPU capacity for face matching. Enterprise per-check pricing is custom and lands below the $0.99 Growth rate.
Your first 100 verifications are free.
No credit card. No sales call. A price you already know.
