What is skip tracing?
Skip tracing is a process that is used to finding someone who is difficult to find or, and quite often the case, may not want to be found. With more and more people skipping on payments, the individuals (or companies) resort to ghosting or blocking your email or telephone number. Skip tracing is a valuable tool that helps to find new contact data on the debtor so you can hold them responsible for paying their debt.

Skip tracing in debt collection is all about identifying new contact data and then verifying it. A robust and GDPR compliant skip tracing process can help you save time and money.

The artificial intelligence immediately kicks in and searches for new contact data via the public sources (both current and historical). We do not look for data in places we are not allowed to.
DebtCo quality check process

Skip-tracing is the process of finding someone who has potentially relocated, has new contact information or otherwise disappeared. Usually, these individuals have relocated or disappeared because they’re hoping to skirt certain responsibilities, such as paying debts. Skip tracing is not quite the same as detective work which can end with an arrest.
Skip tracing is often included in the debt collection process, as it can help creditors find those who owe them money.
Like we said before, skip tracing is a tactic used in debt collection for finding certain individuals who owe money. It can be used by collection agents, bailiffs, court enforcement officers and private investigators.
Most collection agencies have their own staff to perform the debtor trace however there are also a few that outsource it.
Our experience is the traditional debt collections agencies still use manual collection process. We at DebtCo have developed our own forensic technology to do this direct from our platform, at scale!
Our skip tracing technology requires us to have some minimum information on the debtor such as name, the last verified address and contact number and possible email address. Invoice dates with the above information helps us to place a time stamp on the individual.
With this information, we try to build a profile of the individual via the public source information we have access to.
Please be advised, whilst skip tracing is used to great effect in establishing contact, it does not guarantee success.
