Upload the companies you deal with. We watch ASIC's published notices and email you within a day of one entering liquidation, administration or restructuring.
An appointment is public from the day ASIC publishes it. The letter from the administrator is not the first anyone could have known — it is just the first time most suppliers find out.
Goods that go out after an appointment join the same unsecured queue as everything already owed.
A credit limit set last quarter stays in force until somebody notices the company it was set for has changed hands.
Goods in transit, work in progress, a personal guarantee: what you can do about any of them depends on how early you know.
A CSV of ACNs or ABNs, or paste them straight in. Group them into watch lists however you already work — by portfolio, by account manager, by risk band.
Straight from ASIC's published notices service, the public record of external administration appointments in Australia. Checked continuously, not scraped once a night.
An email to whoever you nominate, a signed webhook into your own system, or both at once. One alert per notice, naming the company and which process it has entered.
Set either per watch list, or both. The email is for the people chasing the debt; the webhook is for the system that already knows about it.
An email to the address you set on the watch list, within a day of the notice appearing. One per notice, naming the company, its ACN and which process it has entered, with a link to the notice on ASIC.
Different lists can alert different people, so the team that owns an account is the team that hears about it.
Register an https:// endpoint and matching notices arrive as signed POST requests — straight into your ledger, your CRM or whatever holds the credit limit.

An independent administrator takes control from the directors and decides, in a short defined window, whether the company can be saved. A moratorium stops most creditor action while that happens.
A liquidator realises the company's assets and distributes them in the statutory order of priority. Secured creditors, then costs, then employee entitlements. Unsecured trade creditors rank behind all of it.
Available where total liabilities are $1 million or less. The directors keep running the business while a restructuring practitioner puts a plan to creditors for a vote.
General information about what each process is, not advice about a specific debt. The longer explanation is on the blog.

ASIC's published notices service — the public record of external administration appointments in Australia. We collect and index it. We do not create it, edit it, or add a view of our own.
Within a day of ASIC publishing the notice. Notices are picked up continuously rather than in a nightly batch, so an appointment published in the morning does not wait until midnight to reach you.
ACNs or ABNs, as a CSV or pasted in. Starter covers 250 companies, Pro 2,500 and Business 25,000, and you can split them across watch lists so different alerts go to different people.
Yes. Register an https endpoint on a watch list and matching notices arrive as signed POST requests, verified with an HMAC-SHA256 signature over the raw body. Full notice history and API access are on every plan, including Starter.
A failed delivery is retried five times with increasing delays. Ten consecutive failures deactivate the watch list, and reactivating it delivers everything that queued up while it was off — so an outage on your side does not silently lose notices.
