Cheqm Business Affordability Check
Real-time insight into a company’s ability to pay
Traditional credit assessments are often based on historical information such as financial statements and credit reports. While this data provides insight into the past, it does not always reveal a company’s current financial standing.
With the Cheqm Business Affordability Check, you gain real-time insight into a company’s current financial capacity. By combining Open Banking data with credit information, business data, and public records, you get a complete and up-to-date picture of your business client’s financial health.
Why choose real-time affordability?
A company that was profitable last year may be facing liquidity issues today. At the same time, startups, self-employed individuals, and fast-growing companies can perform strongly financially without an extensive financial history.
The Cheqm Business Affordability Check therefore looks at what is happening now:
Current revenue and income
Cash flow and liquidity
Fixed-, liabilities, and financing
Suppliers and tax payments
Payment history and account activity
This provides a more reliable picture of actual payment capacity.

How does it work?
After receiving the business owner’s consent, Cheqm analyzes the business checking account(s) via secure Open Banking connections. This data can be enriched with credit information, company data, and public sources.
Within seconds, you’ll receive a clear Business Affordability Score and additional insights into the company’s financial health and risk profile.
