Quick Start
Receive Link
Ask candidate to share their PsicoStacks credential link or QR code.
Preview (Free)
See band rating and basic insights without payment.
Pay & Verify
Pay 10 STX (~$3) to access full psychometric report for 60 seconds.
Understanding the Preview
The free preview includes:
- Band Rating: Overall performance level (A, B, or C)
- Key Insights: 3-5 bullet points highlighting strengths
- Blockchain Status: Verification that the credential is authentic and not revoked
The preview is often sufficient for initial candidate screening. Pay for full report only if candidate advances.
Verification Process
Payment (10 STX ≈ $3)
When you click "Pay to Verify", a blockchain transaction is initiated:
- 10 STX is transferred to the credential owner
- Transaction is recorded on-chain for transparency
- Payment confirmation takes ~30 seconds
Accessing the Full Report
After payment confirmation, you receive a 60-second window to view:
- Complete psychometric assessment results
- Detailed scores across all test dimensions
- Percentile rankings
- AI-generated comprehensive analysis
⏰ Important: You have 60 seconds to review the report. Make sure to read carefully and take notes if needed.
After Expiration
If you need to access the report again, you'll need to pay another 10 STX. This protects candidate privacy and prevents unauthorized sharing.
Cost Breakdown
| Action | Cost |
|---|---|
| Preview credential | FREE |
| Full report access (60s) | 10 STX (~$3) |
| Additional access | 10 STX each time |
Significantly cheaper than traditional verification methods which can cost $15-50 per candidate.
Best Practices
Screen with Preview First
Use the free preview to shortlist candidates. Only pay for full reports of candidates who advance.
Prepare Before Verification
Have evaluation criteria ready. You only have 60 seconds to review the full report.
Respect Candidate Privacy
Don't screenshot or share the reports. The time limit protects candidate data.
Check Blockchain Status
Verify the credential is not revoked or expired before paying.
Frequently Asked Questions
What if the candidate hasn't shared their credential yet?
Simply ask them to generate a share link from their PsicoStacks dashboard. It takes less than 30 seconds.
Can I share the verification link with my team?
Yes! The preview is free for everyone. However, each person who wants to see the full report needs to pay separately.
What happens if I close the tab during the 60-second window?
The token is one-time use and expires after 60 seconds regardless of whether the tab is open. You'll need to pay again.
How do I know the credential is authentic?
It's cryptographically verified on the Stacks blockchain. The credential cannot be forged, and you can verify its authenticity via the blockchain explorer.
