Transaction Screening

Screena API helps Payment Service Providers (PSPs), Money Service Businesses (MSBs) and fintechs to easily meet sanctions compliance for cross-border transactions – at speed and at scale.

Achieving faster, cheaper, more transparent, and more inclusive cross-border payment services is mission-critical for PSPs, MSBs and fintechs.

Sanctions compliance yet remains a major cause of frictions for cross-border payments. Worst of all, it can quickly become a bottleneck for fast-growing fintechs.

 

The reasons are well known. Transaction screening is labor-intensive, as it also requires detecting information in free format fields. Over 99% of transactions that cause alerts in screening systems end up manually reviewed and closed as false positives by the compliance teams, resulting in delays and increased costs.

Aging, slow, monolithic enterprise compliance suites are no longer “the safer choice” in this new era of instant payments.

Screena API provides real-time transaction screening with heightened throughput and lower latency for frictionless payment operations. By combining AI-powered screening accuracy with immediate response, Screena helps PSPs, MSBs and fintechs move money safely around the world – better and faster than their competitors.
