Click2Check joins OPDA on mission to speed up homebuying

04 December 2025

Click2Check, a credit and anti-money laundering check and Open Banking provider, is now the newest member of the Open Property Data Association (OPDA)

Click2Check is designed for financial advisers, mortgage intermediaries, estate agents and solicitors. At the click of a button, it provides a client’s credit report, digital anti-money laundering (AML), Identity Verification (IDV) reports and Open Banking transactional data reports.

Its goal is to fast-track the way advisers conduct their background checks, pulling them together into one place and enabling them to access the information in minutes. This transparent and digital solution aligns with the OPDA’s objectives to change the way people buy and sell houses by implementing open data standards and encouraging transparent data sharing.

The OPDA’s aim is for every part of the mortgage and property chain to share data in a digital and trusted format. Click2Check’s turnkey solution makes credit and banking reports available to financial services professionals, and with the AML and IDV solutions combatting fraud, the company is helping to achieve the aims the OPDA is striving for.

CEO David Jones said:

“It is important more organisations join the OPDA to contribute to what they are trying to achieve for the benefit of all.

“I have seen firsthand the inefficient nature of mortgage processing over twenty years of supplying business solutions to the mortgage sector. My wife, who worked as a mortgage adviser, would spend countless hours chasing bank and credit information only to find that, when it eventually came, it was not a true reflection of the client’s financial health. This problem was widespread, so as a result, we developed a faster, more secure and more accurate process for obtaining this vital information – which led to the creation of Click2Check.

“OPDA’s mission aligns perfectly with our belief that digitising the homebuying process will revolutionise the customer experience, improve property-buying and reduce the time taken to get a mortgage. Click2Check significantly speeds up the process, so joining the OPDA to play an active role was a logical step for us. It is also a step towards achieving our own mission of making things quicker and easier for brokers.”

Maria Harris, chair of the OPDA says,

“We are continuing our mission to transform and improve the home buying and selling process. This is gaining support across government and increasingly, through our growing number of members. The more members we gain from all parts of the housing industry, the more quickly the digitisation of transparent, secure and sharable data will be a reality.

“Organisations such as Click2Check who share our goals, help us to turn our mission into a practical solution.”

Since its launch, OPDA has delivered open property data standards and models for trustable and shareable data. The free and open-source tools have been created and tested in collaboration with every sector across the property industry. Those using OPDA’s data standards for digital property packs have seen the time reduced from mortgage offer and purchase accepted to exchange of contracts within 15 days.
