Creation of Business and Individual Profiles: Unique Identifiers

A Business profile is created using information when a new business comes through on the first deal. An Individual profile is created using information when a new owner comes through on a deal.
To learn more about how profiles are created using deal information, see Deal Information in Business and Individual Profiles.
Once the Business and/or Individual profile is created, we use unique identifiers to match any new deals and information to these existing profiles.
  • For Business profiles, the unique identifiers are:
    • Business Name
    • Business Address
  • For Individual Profiles, the unique identifiers are:
    • First Name
    • Last Name
    • Date of Birth
Once the Business or Individual profile is created, if another deal comes through with all of the unique identifiers above, we will match that deal to the respective profile. If any of these unique identifiers differ from an existing business or individual profile, a new profile will be created.
