Trust & verification
‘Verified’ means something specific here.
It's not a badge we hand out. It's a set of checks against independent sources (Home Affairs, CIPC, and the business's own bank), completed before any deal goes live.
Three questions every check answers
Before you see a deal, we’ve already asked the questions you would.
Identity
“Is this a real person?”
ID document checked against Home Affairs records, with biometric face matching. No anonymous listings, ever.
Business
“Is this a real company?”
Registration and standing confirmed at CIPC, and the applicant confirmed as a director of that company.
Money
“Is the money real?”
Bank account ownership and live cash flow verified through open banking, direct from the bank, not documents that can be edited.
The differentiator
We can verify previous payments from the deal’s buyer.
Most funding decisions rest on what a business says about its buyer. Because cash flow is verified through open banking, we can show whether that specific buyer has actually paid this business before: how many times, and how recently. It’s a signal no one else can offer, and it’s attached to every deal where it exists.
We verify facts. We don’t predict outcomes.
Honesty is part of the product. Verification tells you what is true about a business and a deal today. It cannot tell you what happens next.
A verified deal can still fail: deliveries slip, buyers pay late, businesses hit trouble. We will never describe any deal as safe, and we will never call a return guaranteed. Anyone who does is selling you something else.
Your data, with your consent
Every check runs with the business’s explicit consent, in line with POPIA. Businesses see what will be checked before they agree, and can withdraw consent at any time.
We collect only what verification requires, share verification outcomes (not raw bank data) with investors, and never sell personal information.
