Truv
Consumer-permissioned payroll and income/employment data API for lenders and banks.
Our Verdict
Credible challenger to The Work Number for income verification, though coverage gaps still force fallback flows.
Pros
- Direct payroll connections bypass document uploads
- Faster income verification than The Work Number
- Consumer-permissioned, so privacy-friendly
- Cheaper than Equifax for lender use cases
Cons
- Coverage depends on payroll provider support
- Fallback flows still needed for gig/1099 workers
- Smaller brand than Plaid or Equifax in lending
- Some employer payroll systems reject automation
Best for: Lenders and banks cutting verification costs and loan approval times
Not for: Verifying income for gig workers or self-employed borrowers at scale
