Operating standards

We operate in accordance with applicable U.S. financial regulations, including AML and KYC requirements. Our compliance program covers customer identification, transaction monitoring, sanctions screening and recordkeeping consistent with our registrations.

Independent verification

Users may independently verify our registration via:

  • FinCEN MSB Listings — official FinCEN database of registered Money Services Businesses.
  • NMLS Consumer Access — official Nationwide Multistate Licensing System database used by U.S. state regulators.

These are official regulatory databases maintained by U.S. authorities. We encourage users to confirm registration details directly through these sources.

  • Network fees may apply and are passed through to the customer.
  • Transaction limits depend on your verification level.
  • Services may not be available in all U.S. states or jurisdictions.
What we do not claim. We do not represent ourselves as fully regulated, government-approved, or as offering guaranteed compliance. Registration as an MSB and a state money transmitter license do not constitute an endorsement by FinCEN or the State of Washington.
