What is Passfort credit?
Passfort credit is used to pay for checks when Passfort is acting as a reseller for a data provider.
For most data providers, you have the option to use Passfort as a reseller. This means your only agreement is with Passfort, and you don’t need a second agreement with the data provider.
Anyone using your account can run a check with the data provider, and the cost to run the check is taken from your account’s credit balance.
See your pricing page to learn what data providers you’re currently using Passfort as a reseller for. To add or change your reseller agreement, contact us.
How much does a check cost?
The cost for a check depends on the data provider and region of the check.
To see how much your checks cost, use the Manage account icon
to access your pricing page.
To find out how much you’ve spent on checks, see your Passfort credit balance.
Does credit expire?
Credit never expires. Once you top up, you can use it whenever you like.
Can I change data providers?
Yes. Credit is used to run checks from all data providers Passfort is reselling, which means you can use multiple data providers or change data providers at any time without changing your credit balance.
When you run a check with the new data provider, the cost to run the check is taken from your account’s balance as normal.
How do I know when my credit balance is running low?
When your credit balance is less than £100, a notification is displayed to all users to say that your Passfort credit is running low and some checks will not be available soon.
You can change the balance amount that triggers a low credit notification. To request the change, contact us.
When your balance reaches £0, a notification is displayed to all users to say you’re out of Passfort credit and some checks are not available.
You can also choose to receive an email notification when your balance is low and/or reaches zero. To manage your credit warning email notifications:
Go to > > .
To receive an email warning when your balance is low, set the preference to . To turn off the email warning, deselect .
