Docuverus Expands Income Verification Options with Plaid Bank Linking 

Verification first. Flexibility always. 

At Docuverus, we’ve built our reputation on one thing: rigorous verification. Our technology doesn’t just flag when something looks off—it digs deeper, peeling back the layers of a document to confirm authenticity and calculate income down to the penny. That remains the foundation of every application we process. 

But verification isn’t one-size-fits-all. To give applicants more choice and leasing teams more speed, we’ve added a new option: secure bank linking through Plaid. 

What’s New

Applicants can now connect their bank accounts directly through Plaid, instantly verifying income in just minutes. This option sits alongside traditional document uploads, giving applicants three clear paths: 

1. Bank Link Only – Applicants connect their accounts, no PDFs required. 

2. Document Upload Only – Applicants upload bank statements or paystubs as before. 

3. Both Together – Applicants link their accounts and upload documents for the most complete picture. 

Every request, no matter the method, is still reviewed by Docuverus with the same industry-leading fraud detection. 

Why Does Income Verification with Plaid Matter? 

  • Speed – Linking cuts down delays, approvals move faster, and leases close sooner. 

  • Flexibility – Applicants choose the path that works best for them: link, upload, or both. 

  • Trust – Secure Plaid connections combined with Docuverus’s unmatched fraud protection. 

For leasing agents, this means fewer stalled applications and less time spent chasing documents. For applicants, it means a smoother, more transparent process. 

The Docuverus Difference 

Where others stop at partial service, Docuverus delivers full verification: 

  • Deeper Insight: From metadata to document content, we validate accuracy, continuity, and ownership. 

  • Direct Source Checks: SSA verification for Social Security Numbers. 

  • Complete Context: We don’t just say “fraud.” We show the why, with supporting evidence. 

  • Adaptive Protection: Fraud evolves. Our proprietary system evolves with it. 

Fraud detection keeps you alert. Fraud Detection and Verification keeps you protected. 

The Docuverus Difference 

While bank linking provides verified net income, uploaded paystubs are still recommended for calculating gross income. That’s where Docuverus stands apart; by combining Plaid’s trusted linking with our best-in-class document verification, leasing teams see the full story. Even when applicants split deposits across multiple accounts, our process delivers accuracy that competitors can’t match. 

And We’re Not Stopping Here!  

Coming soon: expanded Plaid options like payroll provider linking and bank balance verification will give property managers even more tools to make confident, data-driven leasing decisions.

The Bottom Line on Verification and Flexibility

Fraud prevention starts with verification, and that will always be the heart of Docuverus. Adding Plaid bank linking isn’t about replacing that foundation; it’s about making the process faster, easier, and more flexible for everyone involved. 

With Docuverus, leasing teams don’t have to choose between speed, accuracy, and fraud protection. They get it all.
