What Vettly connects to

DVLA and DVSA vehicle records, a licensed data supplier and Stripe for payments, plus the ways you can run a check. This page lists only what works today.

Vehicle records

Where every check comes from.

  • DVLA vehicle recordsThrough our licensed data supplier

    Tax and MOT status, and the registered details: make, colour, fuel, engine size, CO2 and the date of first registration.

  • DVSA MOT historyFrom DVSA records

    Every MOT test since 2005, with the result, the mileage and every advisory and defect.

  • DVSA safety recallsFrom DVSA records

    Whether the manufacturer has a recall on the vehicle that has not been done.

  • Full history recordsData provided by Experian

    Outstanding finance, insurance write-offs, stolen and scrapped markers, keepers, plate changes, VIN details, mileage records, valuations and specifications.

  • UK average pump prices from the Department for Energy Security and Net Zero, refreshed every week, for running cost estimates.

  • How many of each make and model are on the road in Great Britain, and how many are off it, for the How many are left tool.

Where our data comes from

Payments

For full checks, packs and the seller pack.

  • StripeLive

    Every payment goes through Stripe Checkout: cards, Apple Pay and Google Pay. We never see your full card details.

Where you are

Ways to run a check and keep up with a vehicle.

  • Point it at a number plate: your phone reads it, in the browser, and the free check runs straight away. Nothing to download.

  • A free account emails you a month and a week before a vehicle's MOT or tax is due, from the dates on the DVLA and DVSA record.

Vettly Trade

For motorbike and car dealers, on their own site.

  • Finance, write-off, stolen and mileage checks with trade and retail values, for motorbikes and cars, from a licensed data supplier.

  • Monthly and yearly Vettly Trade plans are billed through Stripe.

Plainly

What we do not connect to

So you know exactly what happens with a check, and what does not.

  • No public API or webhooks

    Vettly does not offer an API for other businesses or developers today. The only API is the one our own browser extension uses, and it is not offered to anyone else.

  • Your details stay with us

    Our data suppliers receive the registration being checked, never your name, email or anything else about you.

  • We never post adverts for you

    The seller pack and Vettly Trade write adverts for you to paste into the listing sites you choose. Nothing is sent to those sites from Vettly.
