USD before applicable tax. Yearly totals are $1,990, $4,990 or $9,990 in one charge every twelve months. Yearly prices equal ten monthly payments. Yearly billing is not paid in monthly installments.
One candidate counts as one workflow, regardless of referees or reminders. Monthly renewal does not reset calendar-year usage; one active paid month may use the remaining annual allowance.
YOUR NEXT STEPS
From your plan to your workspace
-
Review & authorize
Verify your work email, provide institution and software-use addresses, then review tax, your full total and the saved-card agreement. Square handles secure card entry.
-
Make it yours
After confirmed payment, a four-step journey saves your organization, contacts, address and workflow preferences. Submit the complete setup for NES review.
-
Get ready to hire
NES reviews and provisions your organization. Activation is estimated within two hours after complete submission. We email you when the workspace is active.
The two-hour estimate is not a guaranteed response time. Payment alone does not start your license or open product access. Saved payment and setup status help you resume without paying again.
Need a broader scope?
Campus access, multiple software-use locations, additional seats, integrations, SSO and custom implementation receive a scoped quote.
Request a scoped quoteAlready with NES?
Manage automatic renewal from your ReferenceCheck billing account. Existing custom contracts retain their agreed terms. For ACH or purchase orders, arrange a reviewed quote before paying.
Recover an earlier hosted orderCan I stop automatic renewal?
Stop future renewal in your billing account. Confirmed paid access retains its original term. A charge already submitted when cancellation arrives must be reconciled; cancellation alone does not refund it. See the recurring purchase terms.
How is tax confirmed?
Your institution's software-use location and applicable exemption evidence are reviewed before payment. The full tax and payment total appear before card authorization. An exemption request alone does not establish exemption. Multiple-use-location purchases receive a reviewed quote.
What happens when paid access ends?
New workflows and invitations stop. Existing workflows have seven days to finish after their initiating term ends; ordinary exports remain available for thirty days after the latest effective paid term ends. Records remain subject to valid deletion requests and the privacy policy.
