About LicenseCheck

Evidence-Based Verification for Better Petroleum Decisions

LicenseCheck is a specialist petroleum verification platform created to help businesses independently assess suppliers, licenses, companies, depots and material supporting information before relying on them in commercial decisions.

Our purpose is simple: create a credible verification layer between the information a counterparty presents and the decision a client makes.

✓ Petroleum-sector focused

✓ Company/CIPC included as standard

Why LicenseCheck Exists

The Same Party Making the Claim Should Not Be Your Only Source of Verification

Petroleum transactions often rely on licenses, company documents, depot information, commercial representations and supporting records supplied by the same counterparty being assessed.

LicenseCheck introduces an independent layer that helps clients assess whether critical information is materially consistent and can reasonably be relied upon within a defined scope.

Information Risk

Documents may be outdated, incomplete, misinterpreted or associated with the wrong entity.

Counterparty Risk

The company presenting information may not always be the same entity reflected across licenses, invoices or operational arrangements.

Decision Risk

Material inconsistencies are easier to address before payment, credit, contracting or investment exposure occurs.

Our Verification Principles

How We Approach Every Verification

Independent

We separate the verification process from the counterparty making the underlying claim.

Evidence-Based

Outcomes are based on the information and evidence available within the agreed verification scope.

Scope-Defined

We clearly distinguish what was checked from what falls outside the verification requested.

Confidential

Verification requests and supporting documents are handled as confidential commercial information.

Operating Structure

Operated by the Fuel Wholesalers Association Under License

LicenseCheck is operated by the Fuel Wholesalers Association under license. This structure combines petroleum-sector knowledge and industry context with a dedicated verification platform whose checks are separated from the counterparty being assessed.

The LicenseCheck brand, methodology and verification framework remain distinct so the platform can develop as a specialist verification service with its own standards, systems and records.

Petroleum-Sector Focus

LicenseCheck is designed specifically around petroleum counterparties, regulatory information, supplier relationships and transaction risk—not as a generic company-checking service.

Does Not Issue Licenses

We do not issue, renew, approve or guarantee petroleum licenses or permits.

No Future Guarantee

A verification outcome does not guarantee future commercial performance or unchanged circumstances.

Does Not Replace Advice
