Income Verification

Automated Income Verification for Faster Loan Approvals

Manual income verification using payslips and tax returns is slow and prone to fraud. Fiskil enables instant, automated income verification by analyzing real bank transactions, accelerating loan approvals while reducing risk.

Manual Income Verification is Slow and Risky

Traditional income verification relies on documents that can be forged, are time-consuming to review, and delay loan decisions.

  • Applicants must provide payslips, tax returns, and bank statements

  • Manual document review takes days or weeks

  • Documents can be forged or outdated

  • Incomplete picture of true income (side hustles, gig work)

  • High operational cost for manual verification
