When you get started with Thirdfort our team can help you understand which data providers you will be using, how checks will be run and how you'll get results. You can [read more about our data providers here](/lp/data-providers-and-sources). ### What support is available? --- We have a Trustpilot rated "excellent" UK-based support team on hand to help you and your clients navigate Thirdfort. You and your team will have access to support articles via the Thirdfort portal and you can speak to a member of our support team via live chat, email or phone. If your clients do run into any problems our customer support team are on hand to help and can be contacted by your clients via the Thirdfort app, email or phone. Let us take questions from your clients away from your team. ### Why does Thirdfort use an app? --- Using our app is the fastest and most secure way to verify identity. It transforms client onboarding, making the process slick and professional. **Over 3 million people** have used it to complete checks in minutes, while our robust data encryption protects against malware, making it far safer than email or a browser. We have a short video on this [here](https://youtu.be/HIwEEKoxvyk?si=sbDZNI2QzMf5i1gY). ### Can you verify clients in bulk? --- Yes, if you need to verify or reverify a large number of clients quickly, we can work with you to process these in bulk. ### Does Thirdfort’s verification meet the Land Registry's "Safe Harbour"? --- Yes, absolutely. Our checks are specifically designed to meet the HM Land Registry's Digital ID Standard. By using our platform, your firm qualifies for the "Safe Harbour" indemnity protection, meaning the Land Registry will cover losses due to a fraudulent identity. This gives you zero doubt in your compliance. ### How easy is it to identify and verify relevant directors and PSCs with Thirdfort? --- We offer one simple workflow for running due diligence on a corporate entity, then verifying key individuals for the purposes of Companies House. You can use the same workflow for anti-money laundering checks. ### Do you charge for checks that aren't completed? --- No, we only charge for checks that are completed. Most of your clients will find it easy to complete their checks. But for those who are having difficulty we have an excellent support team on hand to help app users complete their checks. So you don’t need to worry about guiding clients through their checks. ### How long are contracts? --- Our contracts are for a twelve-month period. We offer flexibility in the way you purchase credits that are used for checks. Unlike most providers, all credits are valid for two years. If you need to purchase more there is no need to restart your contract term. ### How much does it cost? --- We offer discounts based on the volume of clients that you need to carry out checks on. Without any discounts you would pay £15 per biometric, cryptographic ID check. You can see more information on our [pricing page](/pricing/). ## Get confident with compliance. Regulations are changing, but staying compliant doesn’t have to be a headache. Let Thirdfort handle the heavy lifting - so you can focus on what you do best. Talk to an expert
