Edited amounts
Net pay, gross pay or year-to-date totals are increased on a genuine payslip to look more solvent, often with an online PDF editor.
Document fraud detection
Detect a fake payslip
Payslips are among the most requested documents for rental applications, loans and hiring, which makes them one of the most forged. Docusan analyzes the file you receive, PDF or photo, and flags traces of editing or fabrication within seconds.
Typical frauds
The most common forgeries
Fully fabricated payslips
Payslip generators make it possible to produce a credible-looking document in minutes, for a real or invented employer.
Swapped identity or employer
The employee’s name, the company name or its registration number are replaced to reuse someone else’s payslip.
Retouched photo or scan
On a photo or scan, figures are retouched or copied from another area of the document to form a new amount.

FAQ
Your questions
Can Docusan analyze a photographed payslip?
Yes. Docusan accepts PDFs, scans and photos. The checks depend on the format: metadata and versions for a PDF, pixel analysis and copy-paste detection for an image.
Does Docusan check the payslip with the employer?
No. Docusan analyzes the document itself, without contacting the employer or any third party. It flags anomalies in the file so your teams can decide which further checks to run.
How long does the analysis take?
A few seconds per document. The result comes with a verdict (no detection, warning or alert) and the anomalies located on the document.
