How it works

A MotorVerify report brings together the records we can lawfully reach for one car, and says plainly what we could not check.

Four steps

  1. Enter the VIN or chassis number

    Japanese frame numbers work too. We confirm make, model and year with you.

    Where do I find it?
  2. See what we can check

    Before you pay, we list the checks available for this car and any gaps.

  3. Pay with M-PESA

    Enter your phone number and approve the payment on your phone.

  4. Read your report

    Most reports are ready in minutes. Records that need a person take up to a day.

Five results, never a hidden gap

Each check in your report ends in one of these results. A check we could not run is never shown as clean.

Record found
A source returned a record for this vehicle.
No matching record
The sources we checked hold no matching record. That does not prove nothing happened.
Source unavailable
We could not reach the source, so this check is not clean.
Check not offered
We do not offer this check for this vehicle or country yet.
Review required
A person must look at the evidence before this check is settled.

Where each finding comes from

Every finding in a report says which kind of source it came from:

  • From a source

    A record a licensed provider returned.

  • MotorVerify interpretation

    What we read from the records, such as a mileage drop after converting miles to km.

  • Supplied by you

    Documents you uploaded, marked as such.
