A screening checkpoint in customer onboarding

Built around your work

A party check is one part of the transaction process.

A remittance or money-services workflow can involve sender, recipient, agent, and business counterparties. The service needs to know which identities were screened while preserving separate AML, fraud, licensing, and reporting controls.

Map the relevant parties

Identify each person or organization required under your policy and retain its transaction or relationship role. Do not substitute the sender’s result for a recipient check.

Keep failure visible in the integration

Treat a timeout or unavailable source as an incomplete check, not no match. Use safe retries and retain the internal operation reference.

Preserve the analyst handoff

Give reviewers the original source candidate and submitted identity. Document the identity conclusion separately from the authorized transaction disposition.

A practical use case

Give remittance-party checks a clear review path.

Screen MSB customers and counterparties with defined sources, documented review, and monitoring linked to the continuing relationship.

The review challenge

A remittance or money-services workflow can involve sender, recipient, agent, and business counterparties. The service needs to know which identities were screened while preserving separate AML, fraud, licensing, and reporting controls.

How SanctionsKit helps

Treat a timeout or unavailable source as an incomplete check, not no match. Use safe retries and retain the internal operation reference.

Put it into practice

Define the policy checkpoint

Explore source coverage
  1. 01

    Define the policy checkpoint

    Identify where screening belongs in customer onboarding and party-review workflows. Confirm the sources and data required for each subject type.

  2. 02

    Screen and route the result

    Use the server-side API or dashboard and branch explicitly on completed outcomes. Route unresolved identities and technical issues to the appropriate owners.

  3. 03

    Maintain continuing relationships

    Use monitoring for selected customers or counterparties and record changes. Keep transaction-monitoring and regulatory filing processes separate.

Evaluate the fit

Screening questions for money services businesses.

Does this replace an MSB AML program?

No. FinCEN describes MSB-specific obligations. SanctionsKit supports selected-source screening and review, not the entire AML program or filing process.

Can we screen both sender and recipient?

They can be submitted as separate supported subjects under your policy. Keep the relationship between each result and the relevant party.

Is this transaction monitoring?

No. Submitting a party identity from a transaction is different from analyzing transaction behavior or detecting suspicious patterns.

What happens if a required source is unavailable?

The workflow must treat the check as incomplete and follow the documented error or exception process. It must not silently clear the party with reduced coverage.
