BIG InfoMonitor, part of the BIK group, runs Poland's shared debtor registry and sells payment-credibility products on companies and consumers: contractor verification reports with a recommendation, a full BIK credit history for your own company, an invoice payment-reminder tool called Bezpieczna Faktura BIK, a formal payment demand, and an entry in the debtor registry. These are bundled through a business account from PLN 189 net per six months, and no public, self-serve API was found on its pages. Prometiam is a REST API for the official KRS company record, alongside five more European registries, updated daily, with monitoring webhooks and sanctions screening on the same key — and holds no payment-default data of its own, so it is often used alongside a debtor register rather than instead of one.
You need to check whether a Polish company or consumer already has unpaid debts on record, want to enter a non-paying contractor in the shared debtor registry to press for repayment, or want your own company's full BIK credit history and debtor-registry status alongside a contractor-verification report, all in one account.
You verify that a Polish company legally exists as part of a programmatic onboarding flow, your counterparties span more than Poland, and you want a signed webhook on status changes plus sanctions screening behind the same key, starting from a free tier with no card and no contract.
Poland is company-level: no officers, no CRBR beneficial ownership, no KRZ insolvency feed. Prometiam holds no payment-default, debtor-registry or credit-history data of any kind. Monitoring covers Spain, Ireland and Poland; sanctions screening is beta; PEP screening is beta and Spain only.

Two derived signals on the Prometiam side, neither of them a rating: registry_compliance, which marks companies still on the register that stopped meeting their filing duties (Spain, the United Kingdom, Ireland and Norway), and public procurement — Spanish contract awards by supplier, buyer, tax id, CPV code and date, plus a beta score for the contracting body itself in Spain and France. Both are dated facts with their source, on the published price and in the free tier; a score is a prompt to look, never a finding of wrongdoing. Public-buyer risk · Procurement screening
