CompanyWall alternative

CompanyWall is a credit-rating house and business platform with a REST API, and for most of what it does it is broader than we are. This is the honest split, for teams looking up Croatian companies from code.

TL;DR

CompanyWall (CompanyWall Business, run by Companywall d.o.o.) describes itself as a credit-rating house and business platform that lets you view financial data, credit ratings and business information on companies, active since 2013. Its products page lists Hungary, Croatia, Slovenia, Serbia, Montenegro, Bosnia and Herzegovina and Romania as its markets, and offers CompanyWall Business, CompanyWall Business Region and CompanyWall Web-API. Everything on this page about CompanyWall was read on its own site (companywall.hr) on 2026-09-30; nothing comes from a third party.

Prometiam is the register-record API. You hand it an MBS, an OIB, a Croatian VAT number or a few typed letters and get the court-register record back in the same response shape as every other live country. If you need balance sheets, a credit rating, ownership structure or tax-debt data on Croatian companies, CompanyWall is the better tool and we are not a substitute. If you need the official record of a Croatian counterparty at a price you can see, starting without a sales conversation, we are the leaner fit.

Where CompanyWall is genuinely ahead

1. Breadth of data. Its pricing page lists, for companies in Croatia, basic information, account blocks and their history, persons and ownership, the history of changes, an ownership tree, a credit rating, insolvency proceedings, a watch list, balance sheets, profit and loss, business indices, tax debt, import and export, and access to the land registers. The Croatian record on Prometiam is the court-register record and nothing else.
2. Regional reach. Its products page lists markets from Hungary to Romania, and a cross-country view of links between companies. Check Prometiam's coverage list against the countries you need before you assume parity.
3. Financials and credit. A credit rating, a financial assistant, credit reports and a certificate of credit excellence are products on its site. Its data-delivery page describes a contract with the Financial Agency (FINA) for data from the Register of Annual Financial Statements. Prometiam serves none of this for Croatia.
4. Officers and ownership. Persons and ownership and an ownership tree are on its package list. Prometiam has no officers or owners for Croatia.
5. Lists and exports. A marketing database, a watch list and an export of companies by the client's own criteria. Monitoring on Prometiam is every live country except France and Chile.

Where Prometiam is ahead

1. You can see the price, and start on it. Prometiam publishes every tier: a 14-day trial, then €9.99 to €99.99 a month, monthly or annual, each with its call allowance and rate limit. CompanyWall's pricing page lists web-platform packages by duration, priced excluding VAT, and we did not find an API price on its public pages.
2. The official record, validated. An OIB is checked against its ISO 7064 check digit before you spend a call, an MBS is checked for shape with its check digit as a warning, and the Croatian VAT number resolves to the same company through the OIB. Status comes from the register itself, and a company it flags as in bankruptcy, in a pre-bankruptcy settlement or in liquidation is not served as plain active.
3. One schema across the registries. The same response shape for Croatia as for every other country the API covers; adding a market is a country value, not a second integration.
4. Built for a lookup. One bearer key, one parameter per identifier, a name search made for a form field, and free lookup tools you can try without a key.
5. No annual commitment. Monthly is the default and neither billing option has a minimum term.

Built for the API-native workflow

CompanyWall is built around credit and financial decisions on companies in south-east and central Europe. If your workflow is a lookup instead — resolving a customer's identifier, or a few typed letters, into a company record for an onboarding form, an invoice or a CRM row — this is what that looks like on Prometiam:

• Every identifier, one parameter. NIF/CIF for Spain, SIREN or SIRET for France, the company number for the UK, the CRO number for Ireland, the KRS number for Poland, the organisasjonsnummer for Norway, the Y-tunnus for Finland, the organisationsnummer for Sweden, the MBS or the OIB for Croatia, the enterprise number for Belgium, the CVR number for Denmark, the registry code for Estonia, the IČO for Slovakia, the UID for Switzerland, the registration number for Latvia, Cyprus and Romania, the legal entity code for Lithuania, the corporation number for Canada, the ACN or ARBN for Australia, the corporate number for Japan, the company number for Israel, the UEN for Singapore, the NIT for Colombia, the unified business number for Taiwan, the IČO for the Czech Republic, the CNPJ for Brazil, the CUIT for Argentina, the LEI for Germany, the state-prefixed number for the United States (such as NY-4424185) — ?country= picks the register. Prometiam takes the register's 080000604 through company_number, the tax number 27759560625 through oib=, and the VAT form HR27759560625 through vat=.
• Name search built for a form field. ?name= is a normalised, partial match — call it on every keystroke and wire it into a type-ahead.
• One schema, every registry. The same response shape across ?country=ES|FR|GB|IE|PL|NO|FI|SE|HR|BE|DK|EE|SK|CH|LV|CY|RO|US|LT|CA|AU|JP|IL|SG|CO|TW|BR|CZ|DE|AR|UA|RS|SI|EC|NL|CL|NL|MX.
• Auth and rate limits. A single bearer key (Authorization: Bearer rk_live_...) issued at signup; limits scale 10 to 600 requests/minute by tier.
• A typed client, if you want one. prometiam-risk-api on npm — TypeScript types, retries on 429/5xx, cursor pagination, typed errors. The same client for Python: prometiam-risk-api on PyPI.
• From an agent, not just a form. The MCP server (prometiam-risk-mcp on npm) puts the same lookups in Claude Desktop, Cursor or any MCP client.
• Public pricing, monthly or annual. Every tier is published; paying yearly is ten months' price for twelve. Starter begins with a 14-day trial: 500 credits, 10 requests/minute, card required, nothing charged for 14 days. Subscribing keeps the same key working. The trial is not an ongoing plan.
• Try an identifier before signing up. Free MBS / OIB, organisationsnummer, Y-tunnus, NIF, SIREN, Companies House number, KRS, CRO number and organisasjonsnummer lookup tools run the same call with a shared key.

At a glance

Which to choose

Choose CompanyWall if you are a bank, lender, insurer or credit team that needs balance sheets, a credit rating, an ownership tree, account-block history or tax-debt data on Croatian companies, want a watch list and reports for people as well as for code, or need the same credit view across south-east and central European markets.

Choose Prometiam if you are building onboarding, invoicing or KYB flows that need the official record of a counterparty by MBS, OIB, VAT number or name, the same response shape across several countries, and a published price you can start on without a sales call.

The two also combine: CompanyWall for the wider credit and financial datasets, Prometiam for the register record and one schema across the other live countries.

FAQ

Does CompanyWall have an API?
Yes. Its products page describes CompanyWall Web-API, a REST API that returns JSON in one structure for every country where CompanyWall Business operates, for connecting a CRM, an ERP or another business system to its database.

What does CompanyWall cost?
Its pricing page lists web-platform packages by duration, priced excluding VAT, and we did not find an API price on its public pages. Prometiam publishes every tier, starting with a 14-day trial with a card required and nothing charged for 14 days.

Does Prometiam have Croatian financial statements, credit ratings or ownership data?
Financial statements only for listed companies (their ESEF annual financial reports, from the Zagreb Stock Exchange; not every report is held); no credit ratings or ownership data. Croatia is otherwise company-level, with register-change events and monitoring, but no officers and no registry-compliance signal (corporate insolvency notices are linked by MBS). For balance sheets of companies that are not listed, a credit rating, ownership or tax-debt data on Croatian companies, CompanyWall is the better tool.

Can I use both?
Yes, and many teams should: CompanyWall for the wider credit and financial datasets, Prometiam for the register record, OIB and VAT validation and one schema across the other live countries.
