How many documents can I upload at once?

Up to 10 files per upload. Drop or pick more than that and the dashboard only accepts the first 10.

Why can't I upload anything?

You need documents left in your allowance. If you have no plan or your allowance is at zero, the upload panel is disabled until you add a plan or buy a prepaid bundle.

Submit a document for verification in VerifyPDF

You submit documents from the Documents page in the dashboard. VerifyPDF analyses each PDF and gives you a trust score and a fraud-risk rating.

Before you start

You need an account at secure.verifypdf.com.
Each file must be an original PDF, ideally downloaded directly from the bank, employer, portal or issuer.
You need at least one document left in your allowance. If you have no plan, your allowance is zero and you cannot upload.

File rules

VerifyPDF only analyses real PDF files. It does not accept Word files, spreadsheets, images, screenshots or files that were renamed to end in .pdf.

Use the original PDF as downloaded from the source whenever possible. Do not split a statement into separate files, stitch screenshots into a PDF or re-export the file through another tool just to make it upload. Those changes can remove the signals that make the document useful to verify.

Each PDF can be up to 100 MB. If the original source PDF is larger than that, contact support rather than changing the file.

Upload your documents

Log in at secure.verifypdf.com. You land on the Documents page.
Drag one or more PDFs onto the upload panel, or click the panel to browse and pick files.
You can upload up to 10 files at once. If you pick more, only the first 10 are accepted.
The documents appear in your list right away, each with a processing spinner.

Wait for the results

Analysis runs in the background and is asynchronous, so you do not have to watch it. It usually finishes within a few minutes.

The Documents page polls for you. It refreshes itself every few seconds until each result arrives, so you can stay on the page or come back later. Each document moves from processing to one of these states:

Analysed, with a trust score and a fraud-risk rating.
Password-protected, if the file is locked and cannot be opened.
Corrupted, if the file is damaged and cannot be read.

Check your allowance

Each analysed document uses one document from your plan or your prepaid bundle. When your allowance runs out, the upload panel is disabled until you top up. To see how many you have left, check your usage and allowance.
