Integrate with Truework

Employees can connect to Truework and make employment and income verification easier than ever. Truework is available to all employees with a Gusto account and does not require employer setup, participation or approval. 

Truework is a free service for employees and employers–the verification fee is paid by the lender/verifier. 

How it works

When you apply for a loan, job or an apartment, a verifier (such as a bank or landlord) may submit a request for employment and/or income information. Once connected to Truework, you'll get an email when a verifier requests your employment information. You’ll then be able to approve or deny the request to share your information.

You can proactively authorize Truework or wait for a verifier to initiate a request.
