How it works

Three screens. About a minute of your time.

Then your applicant does their part on their own phone.

1

Enter their details and pay once

Your email, your applicant's name and email, and the package you want. Screening a couple? Add a second applicant on the same screen. Pay by card; there is no account to create first.

2

Your applicant verifies themselves

They get a secure link, photograph their government ID, take a selfie, and consent to each check. Their private details go to us, never to you.

3

The sealed report lands in your inbox

Usually within minutes of them finishing. Their credit score, debt and rent as a share of income, the status of every check, and what they declared about themselves, on one watermarked page.

What you get

Four checks, one sealed report.

Every check runs through Certn against official records, with credit data from Equifax Canada, so nothing rests on a document someone hands you.

Identity verification

Every package

Their government ID matched to a live selfie, with liveness detection so a photo of a photo does not pass. You find out who you are dealing with before they have keys.

How ID verification works

Equifax credit report

Every package

Their Equifax score out of 900, monthly debt as a share of income, and flags for late payments, collections, bankruptcies, and legal proceedings, pulled from the bureau rather than sent to you as a PDF. A soft inquiry, so it does not dent their score.

What is in the credit report

Global watchlist and sanctions

Complete and up

Screened against international sanctions and watchlists, including OFAC, EU, and UN lists, plus a politically exposed person check. For nearly everyone it comes back clear, which is the point.

Which lists are checked

Adverse media

Complete and up

News articles, press releases, and other public sources in 70+ languages, searched for fraud, financial misconduct, and serious negative coverage tied to your applicant.

What adverse media covers

Tamper-proof sharing: every report is sealed so it can't be edited or faked after the fact.

One report. One price. No subscription.

Choose the package that fits, then pay once per screening.

Got questions?

Quickscreen, answered

Do I really not need an account?
Correct. You enter your email and your applicant's details, pay for the package you want, and the receipt and report link are emailed to you. There is no subscription and nothing to cancel later. If you screen regularly, a Great Renter account adds team seats and volume pricing, but Quickscreen never requires one.
What is the difference between Essential and Complete?
Essential ($19.99) verifies your applicant's identity and pulls their full Equifax credit report. Complete ($29.99) adds global watchlist and sanctions screening and an adverse media check. Priority Complete ($38.99) is Complete plus direct access to our in-house support team. The full breakdown is on the pricing page.
Does my applicant have to consent?
Yes, and it is built into the flow. Your applicant receives a secure link, confirms their identity on their own phone, and agrees to each check before anything runs. Canadian privacy law requires that consent for a credit check, and it also means you never collect or store their documents.
How long does it take?
Most reports arrive within minutes of your applicant completing their part. If extra verification is needed, for example a common name that needs a manual look, it can take up to 24 hours.
What if my applicant never completes the link?
Then no report runs. You can nudge them, or contact support and we will help. Every Quickscreen report also carries a money-back guarantee of up to $50, which covers the full price of any package.
What does tamper-proof mean?
The report is hashed and watermarked when it is generated, so it cannot be edited afterward without the change showing. Open the sample report and you will see the watermark and the date it was produced across the page.
Is this legal to use in my province?
Yes. Tenant screening with the applicant's consent is standard practice across Canada. What differs by province is what you can do with the result, such as deposit rules and income criteria. We have written those up for Ontario, British Columbia, Alberta, and Quebec.
