Your business is losing dollars in bad debt —
we’ll help reduce that significantly.

We’re not here to replace traditional credit checks — instead, Checkbase adds the missing layer of reputation and ongoing risk monitoring you can’t afford to overlook.

Trust—but verify. Checkbase periodically reviews New Zealand companies by analysing legal, financial, and reputational data from trusted sources. We alert you instantly to any changes that might impact your credit, supply chain, or partnerships, so you can act before risks turn into losses.

How Checkbase Works

Aggregate

We pull and unify company data from official New Zealand sources — including the Companies Register, NZ Gazette, court and insolvency records, as well as other government databases and verified media reports — into a single, searchable profile.

Analyse

Our AI links directors, compliance updates, and public events to surface relationships and early-warning indicators traditional credit checks miss.

Alert

Receive scheduled updates (weekly, monthly, or quarterly) that flag changes affecting your credit, supplier, or customer base — so you can act before issues escalate.
