Overview:
A relatively new entrant into a tightly congested group of suppliers, Checkboard's FCA authorisation differentiator enables an impressive level of data insight during the onboarding process that helps to significantly de-risk transactions
What we like most about Checkboard:
-
FCA authorisation allows for Checkboard to provide detail such as instant mortgage insights and financial history.
-
The business works closely with customers and reacts quickly to requests.
-
Modular approach allows law firms to design their own checks.
-
Ability to capture monies on account (and deposit payments up to £1m) as part of the process, streamlines the cashflow and allows work to begin more quickly.

Business structure:
Majority owned by Founder James Owusu and trading since 2019. Very much in the growth phase and with a strong offering.
Ease of use:
Very easy system to use and reports are very well laid out. The data insights flowing from the FCA authorisation are impressive.
Architecture & roadmap:
Fully cloud based solution with all data held in the UK. The team is impressively responsive to requests from the customer base and strongly moving the product forwards.
Integrations:
The Checkboard system has an Open API to allow integration with 3rd part case management systems and the in-house team is proactive in setting this up for users.
Implementation:
All implementations, onboarding and training is handled in-house by the Checkboard team. The customer support team is regularly referenced by customers as being friendly and efficient.
Value for money:
A straight forward and competitively priced pay as you go "per check" basis allows for transparent charging structures.
Things to consider:
Still a relatively young company up against some established big guns but progressing well with around 100 firms already using the solution.
