How we verify every tradesperson
Identity, before going live
Every trader completes biometric identity verification before their account can take work.
Checked by a person
Credentials are reviewed by a human against the relevant public register. Approval is never automatic.
Insurance is a hard gate
Without current public-liability insurance evidence on file, a trader cannot accept new work.
Audit-trailed
Verification and account state changes are recorded with a timestamped audit log.
A verified tradesperson on Tradelynx has passed an identity check, and has had their trade registrations checked against the official register where their trade needs one, before they can take a job.
