Frequently Asked Questions

Who pays the verification fee?

Either the driver or the carrier can pay. Many carriers sponsor verification for their fleet to ensure compliance and access to verified drivers.

Who does the driver pay?

The driver pays the third-party verification company directly through their secure payment portal during the background check process. CDL-Driver Verify does not process payments.

Are there additional fees for NY drivers?

Yes. New York drivers may pay extra fees required by their state's verification check process. The exact price will be determined and displayed on the payment due page by the verification company before you complete the transaction.

What does the $19.95/month cover?

Monthly monitoring includes continuous background checks, CDL status verification, compliance monitoring, and instant alerts for any changes.

How do I get the CDL-Verify Approved badge?

Once your drivers are verified in the CDL-Verify system, your carrier automatically qualifies for the Approved badge. Display it proudly!

Is there a contract or commitment?

No long-term contract required. Monthly monitoring continues as long as you maintain the subscription. Cancellation occurs 3 days after payment becomes inactive.
