Crypto AML compliance software

KYC-Chain gives crypto exchanges, custodians, payment providers and other virtual asset service providers one platform for their AML controls: verify customers and the companies behind them, screen people, companies and wallets for sanctions and other risks, and keep every decision in one case.

One platform for your crypto AML controls

Customer identity verification

Verify each customer’s identity document and match their selfie to its photograph with a liveness check, and confirm their details against national ID registries, credit bureaus and other records in 37 countries.

Business verification

Onboard corporate customers with company registry checks in 149 jurisdictions, and model their ownership, including trusts, foundations and limited partnerships, with KYC requirements for each director, shareholder and beneficial owner.

Sanctions, PEP and adverse-media screening

Screen individuals and companies against sanctions lists, politically exposed persons and adverse media at onboarding, then keep monitoring them at an interval set by their risk level. Sanctions lists include OFAC, the UN Security Council, the EU, the UK and SECO, with debarment lists such as the World Bank’s.

Crypto wallet screening

Screen the wallets your customers deposit from and withdraw to on 144 blockchains, with incoming and outgoing risk scores and the counterparties behind them.

Risk scoring and rules

Score each customer on their sanctions and PEP results, FATF lists, the Corruption Perceptions Index, nationality, residency, business type, and IP addresses and devices, and set rules that warn, raise the risk level, ask for more information or reject.

Audit trail and reports

Four-eyes approval, granular roles and permissions, and an audit trail of every application and every configuration change, with PDF reports and CSV exports ready to share with an auditor.

Transaction monitoring on request

Monitoring deposits and withdrawals

Wallet screening describes a wallet at the moment it is checked. Crypto businesses that also need to watch the transactions that follow can ask KYC-Chain for ongoing transaction monitoring. Deposits and withdrawals are checked against risk rules agreed with you, such as a counterparty’s risk score, the amount, or the origin and destination of the funds, and the transactions that match a rule raise an alert for your team.

Transaction monitoring is arranged with our team for each client rather than switched on in the platform. Tell us about your blockchains and volumes, and we will explain how it would work for your business.

Questions about crypto AML compliance

What does AML compliance involve for a crypto business?

A crypto business that is regulated for AML generally has to verify its customers’ identities, understand who owns its corporate customers, screen customers against sanctions and politically exposed person lists, assess the risk of the wallets it deals with, and keep records of its decisions. KYC-Chain brings those checks together in one case for each customer.

Which crypto businesses use KYC-Chain?

Crypto exchanges, custodians, payment providers and other virtual asset service providers, as well as banks and fintechs that serve crypto customers. Each configures its own KYC requirements without code, so the checks follow its own risk assessment.

Does KYC-Chain monitor crypto transactions?

KYC-Chain screens wallets when you ask, in a customer’s case, on its own or through the API, and each new report is kept beside the earlier ones. Ongoing monitoring of deposits and withdrawals against risk rules agreed with you is available on request: contact us to discuss it.

Which blockchains are covered?

Wallet screening covers 144 blockchains. On the 24 with full coverage, including Bitcoin, Ethereum, Tron, BNB Chain, Solana, Polygon, Base and TON, a report includes risk scores and an analysis of the wallet’s counterparties.

Can KYC-Chain help with the Travel Rule?

KYC-Chain verifies your customers’ identities, which is the information the Travel Rule asks you to hold and share about the originator and beneficiary of a transfer, and screens the wallets involved. Contact us to discuss how it fits alongside your Travel Rule solution.
