UK Trade Credit & Insolvency Monitoring

See credit risk before it becomes a loss.

CreditWatchGo turns company events into financially relevant risk alerts by connecting official UK filings directly to your actual commercial exposure.

Continuous automated surveillance of Companies House statutory filings and Gazette legal notices. When a customer or supplier changes, you immediately see what happened, the official source, and exactly how much money you currently have at stake.

The CreditWatchGo Difference

Event → Exposure → Severity → Action

A company changes. CreditWatchGo detects the change from official sources, determines whether the event is material, connects it to your customer exposure, and provides the context you need to decide what to do.

Step 01

Your Counterparties

Add customers & suppliers with their active ledger exposure, credit limits, and agreed payment terms.

Step 02

Continuous Monitoring

Surveillance of official registers: Companies House statutory filings plus The Gazette legal notices.

Step 03

Material Event

Identifies petitions, administrations, strike-offs, floating debentures, or director resignations.

Step 04

Matched to Exposure

Instantly connects the event to your outstanding balance, credit limit, and terms.

Step 05

You Take Action

Hold shipments, demand proforma payment, contact buyers, or inspect official court filings.

The product does not make the final credit decision for you: It provides the primary-source evidence, severity rating, and financial exposure necessary for your credit control team to take the right commercial decision.

Exposure Context

See the money at risk

A company event means something entirely different depending on how much money you have exposed. Without exposure context, all alerts look identical.

How It Works in Practice

From Company Entry to Credit Hold in 6 Steps

A concrete look at how your credit control team uses CreditWatchGo daily to safeguard cash flow:

Step 1 · Add Company

Import your debtor accounts

Upload a CSV from your accounting system or enter company registration numbers manually.

Step 2 · Set Terms

Record limits & balance

Assign actual open ledger balances, agreed credit limits, and payment terms (e.g. 30 days) to each customer.

Step 3 · Official Event

Material filing published

A winding-up petition, administration notice, director resignation, or floating debenture is registered.

Step 4 · Detection

Surveillance detects change

CreditWatchGo ingests the event from The Gazette or Companies House within continuous monitoring windows.

Step 5 · Alert Generated

Prioritised with exposure

You receive an immediate email and action queue item showing exact exposure and the verified source document.

Step 6 · Action

Your team decides

Credit controller places account on stop, requests upfront payment, or sets a follow-up review date.

Transparent Comparison

Why not just use Companies House?

Companies House tells you what happened. CreditWatchGo helps you understand which events matter to your money.

Industry Use Cases

Trade Credit Protection Across UK Commerce

Built for SMEs extending credit or relying on critical supply partners:

Wholesalers & Distributors

High-volume trade credit with slim margins leaves no room for customer insolvencies. Monitor recurring wholesale buyers and spot warning signs before dispatching containers or releasing truckloads on open account.

Manufacturers & Importers

Identify warning signs before you extend more credit. Protect raw material procurement and high-value orders by tracking floating debentures and director resignations among key customers and suppliers.

Recruitment & Staffing Agencies

Weekly payroll commitments mean temporary placement debt escalates rapidly. Receive immediate alerts when client companies face court petitions, avoiding catastrophic payroll unrecoverables.

Contractors & Construction Trade

One example of an industry where exposure monitoring matters. Monitor main contractors, subcontractors, and key materials suppliers to safeguard retentions and progress payment applications.

B2B Trade & Professional Services

Reduce avoidable bad-debt exposure by detecting material company changes earlier. Ensure prompt billing follow-ups and avoid performing additional work when counterparty creditworthiness deteriorates.

Core Principles

What we’ll never do

Our credibility comes from evidence and transparency. We believe in empowering credit control professionals, not keeping them in the dark.

No opaque credit scores

We do not hide risk behind an unexplained 0–100 score. Every alert cites the exact official document and statutory event so you understand why it matters.

No annual contract lock-in

We do not tie businesses into multi-thousand-pound annual agency contracts. Our plans run on a simple monthly rolling subscription you can cancel at any time.

No manual register searching

Never waste valuable staff hours manually checking Companies House filings or Gazette legal notices. Our automated engine monitors your whole portfolio continuously.

No automated commercial decisions

We do not make commercial decisions on your behalf. We deliver the facts, exposure context, and evidence so your finance leaders make informed choices.
