Know Your Business checks built around the registers UK organisations rely on for company identity, control and officer relationships.
Look up companies by name or Companies House number and return the best matches so onboarding can confirm the legal entity your customer claims to be.
Retrieve core company information: legal name, company number, status, company type, incorporation date, registered office address and related filing signals.
Access officer appointments - names, roles, appointment dates and resignation status - to validate company officers and understand who can act for the business.
Return PSC register data for beneficial ownership and control - supporting CDD, AML and enhanced due diligence on corporate customers and counterparties.
Highlight dissolved, liquidation or other non-active states so you can block or escalate high-risk entities before credit, payment or contract setup.
Combine company validation with identity, bank, card, address, email, mobile and OTP for end-to-end KYB and customer onboarding under one platform and £ balance.
Consistent REST responses, API keys from the eValidate portal, and the same prepaid pack model as every other eValidate product.
Delivered with Etellect group security practices and ISO-aligned processes suitable for regulated onboarding and commercial due diligence.
Confirm the legal entity, officers and PSC before opening a trading account or granting platform access.
Validate corporate borrowers and directors as part of credit application and ongoing monitoring.
Check that suppliers and payment beneficiaries match an active Companies House record.
