The short answer: Verified Business Identity lets your organization complete a one-time verification process on Proof so that signers and recipients can see your business is real and credentialed. Once verified, your organization receives a verified business status that's visible to signers and recipients on your transactions.
What Is Verified Business Identity?
A Verified Business is an organization that has completed Know Your Business (KYB) verification on Proof. During this process, your organization submits its legal name, business address, and Tax Identification Number (TIN). Proof verifies this information — along with your email domain — through its data partner, Enigma.
Once verification is complete, your business receives a verified status on the Proof platform. This status is visible to signers and recipients on all of your transactions, building trust and reducing friction at the moment of signing.
How to Verify Your Business on Proof
Business verification is a straightforward, one-time process. Here's what to expect:
- Your organization is on a Business Pro+ or Premium plan.
- You are an Org Owner or Admin — only these roles can verify a business.
- Multi-factor authentication (MFA) is enabled on your account.
- Your organization's email address is confirmed. If you haven't done this yet, you'll be prompted to do so before verifying.
1. Gather Your Business Information
Before you begin, have the following ready:
- Your business's legal name
- Your registered business address
- Your Tax Identification Number (TIN / EIN)
2. Complete the KYB Flow in the Proof App
Navigate to your organization's settings in the Proof platform and follow the prompts to submit your business information. Proof uses Enigma — a business data provider — to verify your information and your email domain automatically.
3. Receive Your Verified Status
Once verification is complete, your business receives a verified status on the platform. This status is visible to signers and recipients on your future transactions.
Summary Checklist
- Gather your legal business name, address, and TIN before starting verification.
- Complete the KYB flow in your organization's Proof settings.
- Receive your verified business status, visible to signers and recipients on your future transactions.
