Infonif Alternative

Infonif specialises in one-off Spanish NIF/CIF lookups against the registry. It is useful for manual verification but limited if you need to integrate NIF validation, full registry data, director networks, corporate-event history, and sanctions screening into a product workflow. Prometiam wraps the same official BORME source into a single REST API with public, predictable pricing.

Why teams look for an alternative

What Prometiam offers

A REST API unifying EU + UK company-registry data — Spain (BORME), France (BODACC), United Kingdom (Companies House), Norway (Brønnøysundregistrene) — with daily updates, director networks, and corporate-event data. NIF validation is a single call: GET /companies/search?company_number=B26906461&country=ES returns the matched company, registration details, status, and directors. Ireland and Poland are company-level only; UK beneficial ownership is PSC-based.

Sanctions and US export-control screening (included on Professional) covers 6 sources — EU consolidated, UN, OFAC, UK OFSI, French gels, and the US Consolidated Screening List / BIS Entity List, Denied Persons, ITAR — 44,000+ active entities, via a scored fuzzy-match endpoint. PEP screening is beta and Spain-only (no relatives or close associates); no adverse-media, and no natural-person identity verification.

Frequently asked questions

Does Infonif offer an API?
Infonif is primarily a web service for one-off NIF and registry lookups. Integration access is limited and not consistently documented for self-serve developer use. Prometiam exposes a REST API over the same underlying BORME source.
Can Prometiam validate a NIF the same way Infonif does?
Yes — call GET /companies/search?company_number=B12345678&country=ES. The response includes the matched company, registration details, current status, and corporate-event history. The check covers the same official BORME data source.
How does pricing compare?
Infonif charges per lookup or via subscription packs depending on volume. Prometiam is €9.99/month for 10,000 calls/month on Starter and €29.99/month for 100,000 calls/month on Professional. Free tier 1,000 calls/month, no credit card required.
Does Prometiam include directors and officers?
Yes — every BORME-published director and officer appointment is returned with the company record. Sole administrators, joint administrators, mancomunados, and apoderados all appear with their event history.
Is sanctions screening included?
Yes on the Professional tier (€29.99/mo) — EU consolidated + UN + OFAC + UK OFSI + FR gels, plus the US Consolidated Screening List (6 sources), single endpoint, scored fuzzy match.
