Accredited Hosts set their own fees and may charge to transfer a verified assessment to their platform from the Gateway. The fees that Accredited Hosts must pay to SLCP are often factored into their pricing models.
Accredited Hosts pay SLCP a fee ranging from $35-45 USD (depending on total volumes) for each verified assessment completed on, or received by, their platform. This is part of SLCP’s business model as a self-sustaining nonprofit organization.
The goal of SLCP is to reduce the overall amount of time and money that facilities are spending on social audits. Despite paying a transfer fee, sharing one single verified assessment with multiple Accredited Hosts should be less costly for a facility than conducting repetitive social audits.
