This is a test pilot. Payments use Stripe’s test mode, and test credits cannot start a paid live identity check. Use sample information while your firm evaluates the workflow.
Keep each client’s verification work in one place.
Identity verification creates work across client invitations, document checks, review decisions and record keeping. ACSPverify brings these steps into one case file so your practice can see what is complete and what still needs attention.
Keep track of the work that matters
See which clients still need to provide their information.
Review the evidence and save the complete record in your firm’s protected storage.
Buy check credits for your firm and set your own client fees.
How ACSPverify fits into the ACSP identity verification process
Step 1 – Invite your client
Add your client, record their role and send a private link to collect their information.
Step 2 – Collect and review the evidence
When live checks are enabled, the client completes the provider’s document and face checks. Your firm examines the results and any supporting documents. Provider approval alone is not a Companies House verification.
Step 3 – Record your decision and save the case
Record your firm’s determination and, where applicable, its Companies House submission confirmation. Download the complete case archive, check it is saved safely and confirm handover before our working copy is deleted.
Note: ACSPverify is not an official Companies House service. It is a private platform designed to help ACSPs follow Companies House identity verification guidance more efficiently.
