When a consumer wishes to purchase goods on credit / account, the lender will check the customer's creditworthiness/solvency before entering into the contract. For this purpose, Creditreform offers the relevant services within the framework of the Swiss Data Protection Act and maintains a creditworthiness database to assess the creditworthiness of companies and private individuals. The provider himself decides whether the consumer is supplied on account or whether he has to provide securities such as advance payment.
