Summary
Konfir is a UK-based platform that securely verifies employment and income information. If you've been asked to use Konfir, it's because an organisation you're dealing with has asked Konfir to handle their verification process on their behalf.
Konfir is certified under the UK Government's Digital Identity & Attributes Trust Framework (DIATF), ISO 27001 certified, and operates in compliance with UK GDPR. Verifying with Konfir is fast, secure, and always under your control.
Why use Konfir
You may be using Konfir because:
1. An organisation has asked you to complete a verification
You may be asked to complete a Konfir verification when an organisation needs to confirm your employment or income details for:
🎯 Starting a new job – as part of employment screening or onboarding
🏡 Renting a property – for tenant referencing
💷 Applying for finance – such as loans, credit, or mortgages
2. You're creating a verification for yourself
You may want a verified record of your employment or income to share proactively — with a new employer, landlord, or lender. See: What is Verify Yourself?
