Avoid payment errors and fraud by checking business bank account ownership

Check who owns business bank accounts with Bank Wizard Absolute

When making payments to another business you need to confirm that the account you intend to make the payment into belongs to your supplier or customer. By making the link between the businesses you deal with and their bank account you will ensure that you only make payments to the correct beneficiaries. BWA now includes CCDS business current account data to further increase your match rates.

Key features

How it works

Bank Wizard Absolute compares the business bank account information you enter against the bank account records that we hold. A validation is carried out to check for error that can be caused by mis-hearing or mis-keying, the data is then verified to give you a score that you can easily interpret to confirm that the bank account belongs to the business you wish to send a payment to.
