Plain-English draft — have an attorney review before commercial launch. Last updated July 2026.
Cardinal Check is a verification aid for licensed Kentucky medical cannabis dispensaries. It reads what a KYMCP card says, checks dates, links to the Commonwealth's verification page, and (when connected) surfaces Metrc data under your facility's own authorization.
It is not legal advice and not a substitute for your compliance obligations. The dispensary remains solely responsible for every sale decision and for compliance with KRS Chapter 218B, 915 KAR, and Metrc's terms. If Cardinal Check and a state system ever disagree, the state system wins.
One account per licensed location; managers are responsible for the staff they invite and for keeping credentials confidential. You must be a licensed Kentucky cannabis business (or its authorized staff) to use the service.
Metrc and Dutchie keys you store remain yours, are used only for your location's operations, and can be removed by you at any time.
The service is provided "as is" during the pilot. We work hard to keep it fast and available but do not guarantee uninterrupted operation. To the extent permitted by law, our liability is limited to fees paid in the prior three months.
