Compliance with AML/CTF Act
At SSAWAY, we are committed to maintaining the highest standards of integrity, security, and regulatory compliance.

Our compliance program follows industry best practices and aligns with all applicable Australian regulatory requirements. The key components of our AML/CTF approach include:
1. Customer Identification and Verification (KYC/CDD)
We apply robust Know Your Customer (KYC) and Customer Due Diligence (CDD) procedures to confirm the true identity of all clients prior to providing our designated services. This may include verifying personal details, business information, beneficial ownership, and other relevant documentation. Enhanced Due Diligence (EDD) is applied where higher risks are identified.
2. Ongoing Monitoring and Behavioural Analysis
SSAWAY continuously monitors customer activity to identify unusual or inconsistent patterns. Our monitoring processes allow us to detect potential indicators of suspicious behaviour, Where necessary, suspicious matters are escalated for internal review and required further approvals
3. Transaction Screening and Risk Controls
To strengthen our compliance posture, we apply real-time and ongoing screening of transactions to help identify potential red flags Automated rules, behavioural models, and manual oversight work together to ensure transactions remain consistent with legitimate use.
4. Sanctions and Watchlist Controls
We maintain processes to screen customers and transactions against relevant sanctions lists, regulatory notices, and risk indicators. These controls assist in preventing the misuse of our platform for prohibited or unlawful purposes.
5. Fraud Prevention Measures
SSAWAY incorporates layered safeguards to reduce the risk of fraudulent activity, including: Validation of account ownership Monitoring for indicators of third-party involvement or account takeover Multi-factor verification steps during onboarding and transactional events These measures are designed to protect both our users and the platform from misuse.

Our AML/CTF framework is supported by internal governance, regular staff training, and ongoing program review. We continuously update our controls to reflect evolving risks, regulatory changes, and best practice standards within the digital currency industry.
