Not just Sand, Sea and Sangria
One of many funding investments this Spring on the Spanish start-up scene was for a venture called Ibercheck.
Their service will not find favour with every entrepreneur, as they provide the facility to retrieve people's credit history, particularly their non-payments.
There have been companies already that gathers this information (indeed Ibercheck uses the files of Asnef-Equifax) but this start-up has made the information available and easy to retrieve via a web app. For many entrepreneurs in Spain this will be an invaluable way to get a risk report on potential customers.
The funding investment for Ibercheck was in the region of 112k Euros, and the start-up looks like being an essential tool for entrepreneurs seeking new business in Spain and beyond.
