A B2G Account ("Business-to-Government Account") is the AFSA contract framework that lets approved organisations relay PPSR searches to end-users without each user holding a direct AFSA contract.
How it works
- Applicant lodges a B2G Account Customer credit application with AFSA and undergoes due diligence (corporate identity, fit-and-proper checks, AML/CTF posture, technical capability).
- On approval, the account holder is issued an account number and a scope (org-only, full, or restricted).
- Account holder pays AFSA per search (A$2 per organisation/serial search) and may charge a workflow fee on top.
- Searches are issued under the account holder's account number with a per-search reference set by the end-user.
Hoist Assets' standing
Hoist publishes the current AFSA access status at /trust/afsa-b2g. The access model is org-only: organisation and serial-number PPSR searches, not individual-grantor searches. Source availability controls whether Hoist can run a live PPSR check or must return a sample or unavailable result.
