Is this receivable already financed?

Duplicate financing happens when a second lender never sees that a first lender already advanced against the same receivable. Paste a receivable ID to see its financing status and every claim standing against it. Each claim is a signed proof; the check runs against the claims, not against anyone's private word.

1 Check a receivable

Public. Paste an ID a counterparty gave you. No account needed.

Seen before?

About to advance against an invoice but weren't handed a receivable ID? Check by the invoice details instead. Sign-in required; verify your email (or sign in with Google or GitHub) to see financing status. How this works.

2 Create a receivable

Mints the receivable ID you share with financiers. Requires sign-in.

Optional. With the debtor’s own PO or contract number, the duplicate check can compare this invoice on that number, not only on the invoice number.

3 Register a financing claim

Records "I financed X against this receivable." Two guards run at this boundary: a claim over the unencumbered headroom gets a duplicate-financing warning (register only what is left, or record it anyway and that choice is signed into the claim), and a claim against a receivable the debtor has not acknowledged requires you to accept responsibility for having verified the debtor yourself first — Almstins does not do that verification for you. Almstins records the claim; the financing decision stays yours. Requires sign-in.

4 Attest to a receivable

A supplier's own statement about a receivable, or an inspector/surveyor's attestation about the goods (quantity, grade, delivery). The debtor's acknowledgment can't be self-attested here — it only counts when it comes through the secure link sent to the debtor directly. Each statement is signed, bound to this receivable's hash, and Bitcoin-anchorable. Requires sign-in.

FAQ

What this is and how to use it.

What is this?
A shared registry for receivables finance. It answers the one question a lender needs before advancing money: is this receivable already financed, and by how much? Every entry is a signed, dated record, so you check the facts instead of taking someone's word for them.
How do I check a receivable?
Paste the receivable ID (a 64-character code the counterparty gives you) into Check a receivable and press Query. No account needed. You'll see the face value, how much is already financed, what's still unencumbered, and every claim standing against it.
I wasn't given a receivable ID. Can I still check?
Use Seen before? It checks by the invoice details (supplier, debtor, invoice number, amount and currency) instead of an ID, for a lender about to advance who holds no ID. It needs a free sign-in; a verified account sees financing status, any other account only whether the invoice is already on record. A match is a warning to look closer, never a clean bill and never a legal status.
What do the colors and states mean?
The status pill shows the position at a glance: green available to finance, amber partially encumbered, red fully encumbered, teal settled/paid. Each record also shows where it sits on the trust ladder: Recorded → Signed → Attested → Verified → Disputed. That ladder is deliberate: "recorded" is not "verified."
Do I need an account?
Only to add data. Checking a receivable is public and login-free. Creating a receivable, registering a financing claim, attesting, releasing, or settling requires a free sign-in (Google, GitHub, or email). Nothing about you is pre-loaded, you enter your own data, and it stays yours.
How do I create a receivable?
Sign in, fill in Create a receivable (supplier, buyer, invoice, amount, terms), and press Create & sign. You get a receivable ID to share with financiers. That ID is the key: only people you hand it to can look the receivable up, so nobody can browse the registry.
How do I register a financing claim?
In Register a financing claim, paste the receivable ID, enter your name as financier and the amount, and Sign & register. If your amount exceeds what's still unencumbered, the registry warns you and tells you what's left. You can register only that amount, or record it anyway, and the claim then records that you saw the warning.
What do "signed" and "anchored to Bitcoin" mean?
Signed means the record carries a cryptographic seal anyone can verify. Anchored means its fingerprint is timestamped into a public Bitcoin block, so its date can't be forged or backdated. Anchoring is free and moves no money, it only pins a date.
What does it NOT do?
It records and proves what parties assert; it does not judge whether the underlying transaction is economically true. It never holds funds, never moves money, and never reveals who owns an account, only the names people choose to attach. Almstins organizes and proves the record; the financing decision stays with you.

Almstins records and proves state; it never makes the financing decision. Each claim is a voluntary self-disclosure — a financier shows their own claim the way a wallet holder shows their own wallet. Signatures use the Almstins published key; digests are Bitcoin-anchorable. No account, wallet, or identity is ever shown — only self-chosen labels.
