Summary

Konfir is a UK Government-certified service that helps you verify your employment or income in minutes. With your consent, you connect trusted data sources - such as your bank, HMRC, or payroll provider - and Konfir creates a verified record for the organisation that asked (your verifier). It’s fast, secure, and under your control.


Why you might use Konfir

You may be asked to complete a Konfir verification when an organisation needs to confirm your work or income details for:

  • 🎯 Starting a new job – as part of employment screening or onboarding

  • 🏑 Renting a property – for tenant referencing

  • πŸ’· Applying for finance – such as loans, credit, or mortgages

Instead of waiting for manual references or uploading piles of documents, you can securely share verified data directly from trusted sources like HMRC, payroll, or your bank - all in just a few minutes.


What makes Konfir different

Unlike traditional references or manual checks, Konfir provides:

  • ⚑ Speed – Verifications are completed in minutes, not days or weeks.

  • πŸ‘οΈβ€πŸ—¨οΈ Privacy – Konfir never contacts your current or past employers

  • 🎯 Objectivity – Your verification is an objective record, with no opinions or character-based judgments

  • πŸ›‘οΈ Trust – Konfir is certified by the UK Government under the Digital Identity & Attributes Trust Framework (UKDIATF).

  • πŸ”’ Security – Konfir only shares data via encrypted APIs, unlike email-based document checks.

  • πŸ•ΉοΈ Control – Konfir never retains access to any connected data sources. All connections are instant, one-time and auditable within your accounts.
