This article will walk you through creating a new Checkr account or connecting an existing Checkr account to your IdealTraits platform.


Connect to Checkr

Connect From the IdealTraits Marketplace:

  1. Login into your IdealTraits account and navigate to your ‘Marketplace’ from the top navigation bar.

  1. In the category menu, click ‘Background Checks’ and locate the ‘Checkr’ Marketplace card.

  2. Click ‘Register Now’ to begin the process of connecting to Checkr.

    • If you don't currently have a Checkr account, one must be created to integrate with IdealTraits.


Create a Checkr account

  • If you're already a Checkr customer, select Sign In to connect your current Checkr account to IdealTraits.

  • If you are not a current Checkr customer, fill out the needed fields, select Sign Up to create a Checkr account, and add your company information.

  • Next, enter payment information (credit card or bank information). Invoices for background checks will come directly from Checkr, not from IdealTraits. Payment information may be edited on the Checkr dashboard after the account has been created.

  • Select Finish Sign Up which will submit the account to Checkr for review. Once the credentialing process is complete, Checkr will notify both IdealTraits and you to begin syncing background check data through the IdealTraits platform. The credentialing process may take up to 48 hours.

  • Once you have connected to Checkr, you will be redirected back to IdealTraits.

  • Once your account has been credentialed by Checkr, you can proceed to send background checks.


Connect an Existing Checkr Account

  • If you have an existing account with Checkr, select ‘Sign In’.

    • Sign in to your Checkr account

    • When asked “Ready to connect?”, select ‘Connect my account’

    • You will then be directed back into IdealTraits and can begin sending background checks.
