Licence watch

A record of a licence's scope, regulator, jurisdiction and status, with a visible history when the status changes.

Payment companies, exchanges, card programmes and other regulated businesses.

1. Ask for a record with the request form at proofrail.me/#claim (choose Licence).
2. Give the licence number and the regulator.
3. Proof Rail checks it against the regulator's source where one is supported. Otherwise a reviewer confirms it.
4. The record shows the licence, the date it was checked and its status.
5. If the status changes, the record shows the change.

• Example data, not a real record: "Payment institution licence, regulator and country shown, checked on a date".

• Where a supported regulator source exists, the licence is re-checked on a schedule.
