Integrate Pescheck with Oyster HR
What is Oyster HR?
- Start screenings from Oyster HR
- No retyping of candidate details
- Sensitive documents stay in Pescheck
Starting a screening from Oyster data
HR or People Ops starts a Pescheck screening for a new or existing team member without re-entering their details.
Worker details flow in
Name, email address and role come from Oyster, so the person gets the right Pescheck invitation straight away.
Status comes back
Progress is visible from Oyster's side as far as Oyster's API allows, so People Ops knows whether a check is still running or finished.
Sensitive documents stay in Pescheck
ID scans, diplomas and criminal record certificates stay in Pescheck's ISO 27001 certified environment, not in your HR system. The report is available to authorised users in Pescheck.
Where screening fits in an Oyster workflow
With Oyster, a new team member is usually chosen through your own recruitment process and then onboarded through Oyster as an employee or contractor. A background check fits between the hiring decision and the start date, or before the person gets access to customer data, code or finances. Because the people you hire through Oyster often live in another country than your HR team, verifying identity, education and work history is harder to do by hand.
Without an integration, HR copies each hire's details from Oyster into a separate screening tool. With the integration, the screening starts from the team member who is already in Oyster.
How the connection works
Pescheck connects with Oyster through Kombo, an integration platform for HR software that many HR tech vendors use. Your Oyster admin authorises the connection once. In Pescheck you decide which checks belong to which roles, for example ID, criminal record, diplomas, references, employment history, PEP and sanctions or adverse media, and our integration team helps you map this to how you use Oyster.
Connect once
Your admin connects Oyster HR to Pescheck through Kombo with a secure authorisation. No custom development.
Start screening where you work
Recruiters and HR start a Pescheck screening from the record in Oyster HR. The candidate gets a secure invitation to give consent.
Follow progress in one place
Status updates come back to the record, so nobody copies data between systems.
Who uses it
The integration suits remote-first and international companies that employ or contract people through Oyster and want one consistent screening step for every hire, wherever they are based. It is especially useful for teams with Dutch or European headquarters hiring abroad, and for companies whose clients or regulators expect proof that every team member has been screened. Pescheck is GDPR compliant.

Frequently Asked Questions
Yes. Team members you employ or onboard through Oyster can be sent to Pescheck via Kombo, using the name, email and role already in Oyster. People Ops orders and follows the screening in Pescheck, and Oyster shows progress only where its API supports it.
Pescheck lets you build a package per role or country, so a hire in the Netherlands gets a VOG while someone elsewhere gets the checks that are available locally. The person completes everything online from wherever they live, which removes the back-and-forth that makes remote vetting slow.
Distributed companies usually start with identity verification, education and employment history, since these are hardest to confirm from a distance. For roles with access to customer data, code or finances they add a criminal record check, references, PEP and sanctions screening or adverse media.
Between the hiring decision and the start date, so the result is in before Oyster finalises the onboarding or before the person gets system access. Existing team members can also be screened later, for example when clients start asking for proof.
No. Passports, diplomas and certificates of conduct stay in Pescheck's ISO 27001 certified environment. Oyster passes only the details needed for the invitation, and each person gives consent in Pescheck under the GDPR.
