Common questions

Everything you need to know

Do both partners have to consent?

Yes, always. Both partners register independently and give explicit consent before any data is queried. Neither partner can access the other’s records without the other’s agreement. This is non-negotiable and built into how the platform works.

How long does the report take?

Most reports are ready within minutes. We query DHA, the Deeds Office, TransUnion and CIPC in real time. Both partners receive access the moment it’s complete.

Is IDOTOO legal and POPIA compliant?

Completely. IDOTOO operates fully within South Africa’s Protection of Personal Information Act (POPIA). Data is accessed only with explicit, recorded consent, is never sold or shared, and is stored securely in line with all regulatory requirements.

What records does IDOTOO check?

Depending on your package: ID & DHA verification, credit report (TransUnion), names and address history, property ownership (Deeds Office), employment history, marriage records, CIPC company registrations, and estate & trust information.

How much does it cost?

Once-off pricing. No subscriptions, no hidden fees. Packages range from Essential to Complete. All packages cover both partners.
