Employment 360 vs Konfir Employment Verification

Employment 360 is Cashfree Payments’ employee background verification solution, checking employment details against EPFO databases. Businesses can submit a phone number, UAN, PAN or combinations of those inputs. Results may include a person's name, gender, UAN, phone number and masked Aadhaar details, plus latest and past employer information such as member ID, establishment ID, relieving date and registered employer name. Additional returned data may include phone number, email address, bank account and IFSC code. The product page describes retrieval as real-time and says the end user does not need to intervene. Businesses can work through a dashboard or integrate the developer-friendly API into their own platform; API documentation is linked from the product page. Cashfree lists banks and NBFCs, lending, background checks and employee onboarding as use cases. Coverage is domestic, the source is government data, and typical turnaround is instant. Cashfree launched in 2015. Its privacy policy lists ISO/IEC 27001:2022, PCI-DSS v4.0.1 and SOC 2 standards and certifications, and notes that no internet transmission or electronic storage method is completely secure. Pricing is on request.

Konfir Employment Verification provides employment and income verification and insights for organisations. It draws on Open Banking, Payroll, HMRC, and document processing through direct APIs, and can verify current and previous employment as far back as six years. Gap Insights help establish what candidates were doing between jobs. Its Employer Database checks for associations with reference fraud or other suspicious activity, and employment pattern insights support assessment of candidate honesty and integrity. Requests can be managed in the web-based Konsole, submitted individually or through bulk CSV upload, with pre-built reports returned. Organisations can embed the service in their own UX, use white-labelled journeys, or receive results through webhooks, PDF output, or Konsole. Pre-built integrations are listed for Tifo, Access Screening, and Referoo. Konfir says users typically take two to five minutes to share information, with data returned instantly afterward. Applicants complete verification for free without a Konfir account. The Basic plan costs £5.50 per successfully verified activity; Kore and Enterprise pricing is usage-based and not listed.
