Does DataDogs leave a credit footprint?
–No. Our identity verification runs in real time without leaving a credit footprint, so you can screen applicants without impacting their credit.
Are there start-up fees or long-term contracts?
+No start-up fees, and no term contracts in most cases (industry specific). There are also no minimum usage requirements in most cases — you pay for what you use.
Which industries do you serve?
+Rent-to-own, property management, collection agencies, attorneys, auto dealerships, staffing, HR, private investigators, and e-commerce — including businesses that don't rely on traditional credit bureaus.
Can I integrate DataDogs with my systems?
+Yes. We support batch processing and system interfacing, integration, and API access, plus tiered pricing for higher-volume customers.
What can you verify?
+SSNs, names, dates of birth, addresses, phone numbers, employers, landlords, and references — plus bank account ownership and standing, DMV records, and criminal background where permissible.
How does skip tracing work?
+We combine instant people-finding with deeper historical searches — including the Extended Skip Trace Platform™ and Postal Super Search™ — to locate updated addresses, phones, emails, and employment.
Is DataDogs U.S.-based?
+Yes. We run 100% U.S. operations with no outsourcing, and we're American-owned and veteran-operated.
How do I get started?
+Contact our team. We'll learn about your losses and workflow, recommend the right mix of tools, and get you set up — often within days.
