Payments Platform Challenges

The compliance obligations payments fintechs carry

Sponsor Bank Pressure

Your sponsor bank's BSA officer needs to see your AML program documentation. Without a systematic compliance layer, you're one exam away from a program restriction.

Direct SAR Obligations

As a money services business (MSB), your FinCEN registration carries direct SAR filing requirements. Missed SAR deadlines are enforcement actions waiting to happen.

Multi-Rail Complexity

ACH batches, same-day ACH, wire transfers, and RTP/FedNow have different risk profiles and different monitoring requirements. Single-rail tools miss cross-rail patterns.

Riftbeacon for Payments

Rail-aware monitoring and exam-ready documentation

Multi-Rail Monitoring

Separate rule sets for ACH (batch and same-day), wire, RTP, and FedNow. Cross-rail aggregation catches customers who split payments across rails to avoid detection.

Sponsor Bank Reporting

Exportable compliance program reports designed for sponsor bank periodic reviews. Demonstrate your AML program controls with data, not narratives.

FinCEN SAR Filing

Direct FinCEN BSA E-Filing integration. 30-day countdown with escalation alerts. Narrative drafting from case facts. Examiner-ready audit trail on every filed SAR.

CTR $10K Aggregation

Cross-account and cross-day aggregation for CTR filing threshold. Automatic structuring detection for customers making multiple payments just below $10K.

OFAC Real-Time Screening

Sub-500ms OFAC screening for payment approval flows. OFAC 50% rule logic for entity ownership chains. Configurable match threshold for false-positive control.

Payments API Connectors

Pre-built connectors for Stripe Treasury, Dwolla, Moov, and Modern Treasury data models. Custom webhook ingestion for proprietary ledgers.

Customer Evidence

From payments platform clients

Legacy vendors quoted us 9-month implementations. Riftbeacon had us live in 6 weeks and our false-positive rate dropped by more than half. Our sponsor bank was satisfied at the first quarterly review.

A payments platform processing $1.8B annually

The CTR aggregation alone saved us from two potential structuring misses. Having a system that automatically tracks transactions across days and accounts is the difference between compliance and exposure.
