RefAssure
What it is
RefAssure automates employment reference checking for UK recruiters, HR teams, employers, schools, and care providers. Before contacting referees, it collects written, timestamped candidate consent by email and SMS. It then sends as many as five email follow-ups and two SMS reminders over 12 days. Completed references produce a PDF with responses, referee details, consent records, and a timestamped audit trail. Users can create unlimited question templates with rating, yes/no, text, and date fields. Every new account starts with one free reference credit, with no card required. Additional credits are one-time purchases: 10 cost £9.99, 25 cost £23.75, 50 cost £45.00, 100 cost £85.00, and 250 cost £200.00. Team members share account credits, and the maker says there are no per-user fees. The maker says data is encrypted in transit and at rest, primarily stored and processed in the UK, and not sold. Referee links are single-use and time-limited.
