Companies rename themselves after a rebrand, a sale, or a reputation problem — and the old name quietly stops matching your records. The Australian Business Register keeps the same identifier through a rename, so we follow the ABN / ACN, not the name, and email you when the registered name it publishes changes.
The previous registered name and the new registered name
The ABN / ACN, which does not change, so your records stay linked
The register named, and the date and time we read it
A link to the official entry showing the current name
CRM and finance owners who need contracts, invoices and supplier records to still match the legal entity a year from now.
What this does not do. We report what the ABR publishes and when it changed. We do not score credit risk, screen for sanctions or adverse media, or predict failure.
The official source is Australian Business Register , which remains free to search and authoritative.
Find the company by ABN / ACN or name, add it to your watchlist, and we re-query the Australian Business Register on a schedule. When the published record differs from our last snapshot, you get an email with the old value, the new value and the date we checked.
Yes. Every alert is raised from the Australian Business Register's own published record, and the email links back to it. We never infer a change from a third-party source and label it official.
Watching up to 3 companies is free where a register supports re-checking. $12 a month covers 50 companies. A one-off $19 company intelligence dossier is separate from monitoring.
On a schedule, and only against the register itself — so there is never a predicted or speculative change. If the ABR has not published anything new, you hear nothing, which is the answer most people want.
