If you use old fashioned cards, here's how Fingerprint Self-Capture Packs make your life easier:
No "Grappling."
Instead of donning rubber gloves and treating fingers like rubber stamps, your Trusted Observer™ simply observes people taking their own fingerprints. This can take as little as 5 minutes per candidate instead of the 15-20 minutes typically required with the traditional method. (Of course the Trusted Observer can provide assistance if necessary.)
No Rejections
The FBI typically rejects 1/5 to 1/3 of traditional ink-on-paper print cards as unreadable. You have to repeat them, thus effectively paying time-and-a-half to make you own legacy-style print cards. With our patent-pending procedure, Packs achieve the same accuracy as Live Scan machines. Our computer knows if the FBI will like the prints before they're submitted. It's so accurate we guarantee acceptance!*
No Fines
The fees for processing (aka "query") of NFP Self Capture Packs are similar to other fingerprint capture methods, but certain authorities don't want print cards anymore, and are charging fines and penalties if you don't submit electronically. While your candidates create ink-on-paper prints with Packs, the authorities get electronic submission, hence NO EXTRA CHARGES!
If you send people out (to a police station or processing center), there are other issues and costs that Fingerprint Self-Capture Packs avoid:
No Travel Expenses
If you reimburse employees for parking and mileage while on an errand like fingerprinting, you won't have to anymore! Fingerprints are captured entirely in-house. Also no lost time from the day-off-work such an errand becomes.
No Extra Fees
Forget the $15 - $30 capture fee charged by the police department or service center.
No Indignity
Your candidate or employee doesn't have to endure the police booking room to be fingerprinted.
No Imposter Risk
The big risk in sending someone out is the fact that a candidate with a criminal history might hire an imposter to get fingerprinted instead! You have no way of knowing that the prints actually came from the person. But if a Trusted Observer sees them being made, YOU know without a doubt the prints are genuine.
*Guarantee: If ever a set of prints made with these packs cannot be read, we will credit your account for the cost of that pack.
