Why advisors switch

First impressions shouldn't be a paperwork slog.

New clients arrive excited and leave frustrated by a KYC packet that came back half-complete. ClientCollect turns onboarding into a checklist they finish in one sitting.

Onboard without the wait

Automatic reminders move clients through KYC without your team chasing — most requests finish the same day they're sent.

The right document, first time

Each item spells out exactly what compliance needs — "a statement dated within the last three months" — so nothing bounces.

Financials off email

IDs, statements and tax details move through an encrypted portal with an audit trail — not an unencrypted inbox.

Joint accounts, handled

Spouses, trustees, beneficiaries — separate checklists, one clear view of what's still outstanding on the relationship.

Staged requests

Match the checklist to the relationship.

Don't front-load every form on day one. Staged requests release documents as onboarding, planning and reviews progress.

Meet Colette

Colette speaks fluent onboarding.

Tell Colette "new retirement client, joint account, moderate risk" and she drafts the onboarding checklist — stages, items, client-friendly descriptions and all.

  • Drafts the full onboarding pack
    From one sentence about the client and mandate — retirement, wealth transfer, first-time investor, she adjusts.
  • Flags what compliance needs anyway
    Joint account but only one ID requested? Colette catches it before your compliance team does.
  • Translates finance-speak for clients
    "Risk tolerance questionnaire" becomes "a few questions about how you'd feel if markets dropped" — fewer wrong uploads.

For your clients

Clients onboard from the sofa.

Your clients expect the polish of their banking app. The portal delivers exactly that — no login, no PDF wrangling, no "which statement did you need."

  • One secure link, no account
    Works on any device. Progress saves — they can start on a call and finish that evening.
  • Branded to your firm
    Your logo and colors — clients see their advisor, not a third-party tool.
  • Questions on the exact item
    "Is last quarter's statement recent enough?" lands on that item — not in a lost email.
Security & compliance

Built for financial regulation and GDPR.

Client financials are regulated personal data — under KYC and AML rules and GDPR alike. ClientCollect safeguards them from the first upload.

Encrypted in transit & at rest

Statements and IDs never travel as plain email attachments.

Timestamped audit trail

Who requested, uploaded, viewed and accepted each document — exam-ready.

Client consent, recorded

Privacy notices and GDPR-compliant e-consent captured before the first document is shared.

Access by role

Advisors see their clients, compliance sees the file — nothing more.

"Onboarding used to take two weeks of chasing statements. Now a new client gets one link and we're ready to invest by the end of the week."
