What is revenue verification?

To ensure the integrity and credibility of the list, we carefully verify the 2018 and 2021 revenue numbers for every Inc. 5000 applicant.

Revenue verification will be requested in the format of a digital signature from your CEO and a co-signer with one of the following certifications: Certified Public Accountant, Chartered Financial Analyst, Certified Management Accountant, IRS Certified Enrolled Agent, or Attorney.

Alternatively, you may submit your tax returns or audited financial statements from 2018 and 2021. We may request these forms from you in addition to our standard form and will reach out to you if we need them.

All signatures and forms should be submitted via your Inc. 5000 application account after you have submitted payment. Submitting documentation early will ensure accurate coverage.
