The problem
Searches shouldn't begin three weeks into the transaction.
Once the offer is accepted, you need momentum. The traditional process can leave one of the most important early stages sitting outside your visibility.
02
Searches start too late
Search ordering can wait until draft contracts arrive and funds have been requested — wasting valuable time at the start.
03
Progress becomes reactive
Your team spends time chasing updates instead of having clear search ETAs and useful information to give buyers and vendors.
A different starting point
Same transaction. Less dead time.
moov Partners brings the search stage forward so work that traditionally waits can already be progressing in parallel.

Partner revenue can be reconciled on the agreed payment cycle,
with completed orders clearly tracked so your team can see

they submit their details and make payment. We then handle
the search ordering and operational process.

a replacement standard search pack on their next qualifying
purchase within the applicable guarantee period.

submitted and whether payment has been received, helping your
team identify where follow-up is required.

order and provide support through the search process.

Can you train our team?

explain how orders are tracked and help integrate the process
into your offer-acceptance workflow.
Are clients told about the partner arrangement?
The commercial relationship and applicable rebate arrangements
should be transparently disclosed within the relevant client
terms and partner documentation.
