The Advisor's Recovery Playbook

Before You Recommend It: A Vetting Checklist for Debt Collection Software

31 October 2026 · 6 min read · For Accountants, bookkeepers, advisors, fractional CFOs and CEOs

When you recommend a platform, your judgement is attached to how it behaves with your client's customers. This checklist is what to establish before that recommendation leaves your office.

Conduct and communication

  • Are contact hours and frequency caps enforced by the platform?
  • Can a user write and send arbitrary content, or are controls applied?
  • Does contact pause automatically on a dispute or payment?
  • Is there a genuine human escalation path, and where are those people located?

Data and evidence

  • Where is data hosted and how long is it retained?
  • Can a full contact log for one debtor be exported on demand?
  • What happens to client data if the engagement or contract ends?

Commercial and practical

  • Pricing model, and what happens as ledger volume grows
  • Accounting integrations, and how payments suppress contact
  • Onboarding effort, and who does the ledger clean-up
  • Company maturity, and honesty about what is live versus planned

Where Chasyr fits

Chasyr is in closed alpha with a public launch targeted for Q4 2026, and we would rather say that plainly than have an advisor discover it later. Apply this checklist to us as rigorously as to anyone else.

Recommend debt collection software the way you would sign off on any other control: after the mechanisms are demonstrated, not after the pitch.
