The Verifier Portal — Built for HR Teams That Mean Business

Initiate checks in minutes, track every request in real time, and integrate seamlessly with your existing ATS. Smile Checks gives HR and recruitment teams full command over their verification process.

Launch Checks in 3 Steps
Enter candidate details, select your checks or pick a pre-built bundle (Basic, Plus, or Advanced), confirm — and you're done. The candidate gets an invitation link instantly via email and SMS.
Pre-Built Bundles or À-La-Carte
Choose from ready-made verification bundles for fast, consistent hiring — or handpick exactly the checks your role requires. Mix and match across 16+ check types with transparent credit costs shown before you commit.
Real-Time Check Dashboard
Monitor every check at a glance. Filter by candidate name, status, date, or cost. See progress like "3 of 5 reports completed" and download signed report URLs the moment they're ready.
Transparent Credit System
No surprise invoices. Purchase credits upfront and spend them only when you initiate checks. Credits are refunded automatically for cancelled checks or missed reports. View your full credit ledger anytime.
Automated Reference Management
Add character, professional, or HR references to any check. Smile Checks sends invitations via email and SMS, tracks response status in real time, and sends automated follow-up reminders — no manual chasing.
Custom Reference Questionnaires
Build bespoke questionnaires for every reference type. Drag-and-drop question ordering, 8+ question formats (text, select, date, and more), and required/optional field control. Set defaults by reference mode.
Fully Branded Candidate Experience
Upload your company logo and set a brand color — candidates see your brand throughout every form they touch. Set a custom redirect URL so candidates land on your own success page after completing verification.
Role-Based Team Management
Invite your entire HR team with six granular roles — from Owner and Administrator to Verifier and Partner. Each role sees only what it needs, keeping sensitive data secure and workflows clean.
REST API & ATS Integration
Connect Smile Checks to your ATS (Zoho Recruit, Greenhouse, and more) via our REST API. Programmatically initiate checks, query statuses, retrieve reports, and receive real-time webhook updates — up to 500 checks/day.
Bulk Import via CSV
Running high-volume hiring? Import up to 100 candidates per batch, 5 batches per day. Smile Checks handles invitations, reminders, and tracking at scale without additional setup.
Instant Online Credit Top-Up
Top up credits instantly via various payment methods. Pay via credit card, ewallet, bank or via invoice. Credits are applied instantly upon payment verification.
Enterprise-Grade Data Security
Row-level security isolates every company's data at the database layer. All data is company-scoped by default — no cross-tenant data leaks, ever. Full audit trail for compliance.
