Producer License Verification
BindPilot uses NIPR (National Insurance Producer Registry) to auto-verify your producer license.
Enter Your License Info

- Enter:
- License Number (e.g., "12345678")
- Resident State (state of primary license)
- Click Verify
What Happens Next
- BindPilot queries NIPR within 2–5 minutes
- If active and current, you're approved to quote
- If expired or inactive, complete it before generating quotes
- NIPR check runs quarterly to catch lapses
Multi-State Licenses: If you hold licenses in multiple states, add them under Additional Licenses. You'll be able to quote in all states where you're licensed.
