On SkillScoop, some specialists have a small tick icon next to their name — this means they’re Verified.
Being Verified means the specialist has completed a verification process through our secure payment partner, Stripe. Stripe checks that the specialist’s identity and payment details are valid and consistent. Sometimes verification is approved automatically; other times, Stripe may request additional information or documents to complete the process.
Why verification matters
Verification helps confirm that a specialist is a real, identifiable person with verified payment details. This adds an extra layer of security for both clients and specialists — especially when using SkillScoop’s Hassle-Free Jobs payment option.
Only Verified Specialists can send quotes for Hassle-Free Jobs, which include:
- Protected payments
- Dispute assistance
- Extra safeguards for both parties
It’s all about making the process of hiring and working with specialists safer and more reliable.
What verification does not mean
Being Verified does not mean that SkillScoop:
- Guarantees the quality of a specialist’s work
- Confirms professional qualifications or licenses
- Checks skills or experience
- Determines suitability for your specific job
Verification confirms identity and payout details only.
To make the best choice, we recommend reviewing a specialist’s:
- Profile and bio
- Ratings and reviews
- Portfolio or examples of past work (if available)
This gives you a complete picture before deciding who to hire.
