How to Check if a UK Business is Legitimate

Our free business checker verifies UK companies across multiple data sources to help you determine if a business is legitimate. We check five key trust signals:

  • Companies House registration — Is the company actively registered with Companies House, or has it been dissolved?
  • Google reviews — What do real customers say? High ratings from many reviewers is a strong trust signal.
  • Website status — Is their website actually live and responding? Dead websites are a red flag.
  • SSL certificate — Does their website use HTTPS with a valid certificate? Essential for any legitimate business.
  • Social media presence — Active profiles on Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, or Twitter/X add credibility.

No single signal tells the whole story, but together they give you a reliable picture of whether a UK business is trustworthy.
