Integrate Pescheck with Paycom
What is Paycom?
- Start screenings from Paycom
- No retyping of candidate details
- Sensitive documents stay in Pescheck
Starting a screening from Paycom data
HR starts a Pescheck screening for a new hire or employee without re-entering their details.
Employee details flow in
Name, email address and job details come from Paycom, so the person gets the right Pescheck invitation straight away.
Status comes back
Progress is visible from Paycom's side as far as Paycom's API allows, so HR 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 a Paycom workflow
Paycom holds the employee record, so the person you screen is usually a new hire moving from applicant to employee, or someone already on staff. A background check fits between the accepted offer and the start date, or before someone gets access to money, customer data or sensitive systems. For roles in finance, security or care, periodic re-screening of current staff is common as well.
Pescheck is a screening platform from the Netherlands, built around European rules such as the GDPR. For a company on Paycom, it is most relevant when you hire or employ people in the Netherlands or elsewhere in Europe and need local checks, such as a Dutch VOG, alongside your US process.
How the connection works
Pescheck connects with Paycom through Kombo, an integration platform for HR software that many HR tech vendors use. Your Paycom admin authorises the connection once. In Pescheck you choose which checks belong to which roles, for example ID, criminal record, diplomas, references, employment history, credit or PEP and sanctions screening, and our integration team helps you map this to your Paycom setup.
Connect once
Your admin connects Paycom 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 Paycom. 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 companies that run HR and payroll in Paycom and have employees, subsidiaries or new hires in the Netherlands or the rest of Europe. It gives HR one GDPR compliant screening process for those people, started from the system they already use every day, with most checks completed in 1 to 3 working days.

Frequently Asked Questions
Yes. When an applicant turns into an employee in Paycom's single database, HR can send that person to Pescheck through Kombo with name, email and job details filled in. You order and track the check in Pescheck, and Paycom shows the status as far as its API allows.
Not necessarily. Pescheck focuses on European checks, such as the Dutch VOG, under European rules like the GDPR. Many Paycom customers use it alongside their US process for staff and subsidiaries in the Netherlands or the rest of Europe.
ID verification, criminal record checks, diploma and reference checks, employment history, credit checks and PEP and sanctions screening. Packages are set per role in Pescheck, so HR does not choose checks case by case.
Yes. Because Paycom holds the employee record, periodic re-screening for finance, security or care roles starts from the same data as a new-hire check.
Yes. Only the details for the invitation leave Paycom, the employee consents in Pescheck, and ID scans and certificates of conduct remain in Pescheck's ISO 27001 certified environment rather than in your HR system.
