Credit check potential customers with Shark PatrolUncover Problem Payers
with Shark Check

Overdue, disputed or unpaid bills are a frustrating waste of money and time. Shark Patrol gives you in-depth information in one place so you can make informed decisions about who do business with, and avoid the unnecessary risk of bad debt.

Credit check potential customers

Our simple, fast and inexpensive Shark Patrol credit check tells you all the key things you need to know about a prospective customer:

  • Check their company structure
  • Check their payment behaviour with other Shark Patrol members
  • Check their insolvency

The check is FREE unless the customer has an adverse rating from another Shark Patrol member and even then you pay only one fee per company.

The network that collectively identifies problem payers

Traditional Debt Collection, Credit Control and Debtor Information agencies issue credit checks and credit ratings, whereas Shark Patrol members talk directly with other members, because Shark Patrol members share with the network all their experiences of their customers, good and bad, enabling you to make the right business decisions on a day-to-day basis.

Find out before you do business if your new customer:

  • pays on time
  • has an unwillingness to pay, or
  • disputes, as a means to delay / avoid payment
  • currently has an inability to pay

Protection against persistent problem payers

Even if a problem payer changes their identity, we keep their adverse rating on Shark Patrol to protect our members.
