Product updates

You can now create a company object in Check without any of the fields that were previously required (legal name, phone number, address). This update offers more flexibility for custom onboarding flows, making it simpler to create companies and any associated entities with fewer required fields. When a legal name is not provided at creation time, it must subsequently be updated via API using the company ID. Please note that in order for a company to be visible in Console, or to generate links for onboarding, a company legal name and address are required. Learn more about the company object here.

You can now create a company with the company object using only the legal name. This improvement allows you to create company objects earlier and adds flexibility to when you collect address and phone number data in your onboarding flow. While no longer required at company object creation, company address and phone number are still required to initiate enrollment with Check. Learn more about the company object here.

Check will now remit payments to the child support agencies in Vermont and West Virginia. For Check to remit the payment, you will need to add the garnishment via the post-tax deduction object and mark ‘managed = true’. See which states Check supports for child support garnishments remittance here. 

Check is exposing two new API resources, the Enrollment Profile and the Signatory. These APIs enable smooth enrollment processes for your clients. You can read more about them in the Guide to Company Enrollment.
