That’s where Syncloop transforms the game.

Syncloop’s API Integration Platform simplifies AML and KYC workflows by allowing businesses to automate verification, connect seamlessly with third-party services, and enforce real-time compliance checks—without writing complex code. Whether you're onboarding customers, verifying identities, or screening transactions, Syncloop offers a unified and scalable solution that aligns compliance with speed and efficiency.

The Compliance Burden: Why AML and KYC Are Challenging

AML and KYC requirements often involve:

  • Identity verification
  • Document checks
  • PEP (Politically Exposed Person) screening
  • Sanction list cross-referencing
  • Transaction monitoring
  • Continuous risk assessment

Meeting these demands typically requires multiple tools, manual reviews, and complex integration across platforms. Mistakes aren’t just expensive—they’re legally risky.

Syncloop simplifies and automates these processes, ensuring that compliance is always in step with your operations.

How Syncloop Simplifies AML and KYC Compliance
1. Seamless Integration with KYC/AML Services

Syncloop allows instant API integration with leading compliance platforms and services, including:

  • Identity verification vendors (e.g., Jumio, Onfido, Trulioo)
  • Sanction list databases (e.g., OFAC, EU, UN)
  • PEP screening services
  • Financial crime risk engines

With drag-and-drop connectors and no-code webhook configuration, Syncloop makes it easy to connect to any third-party provider in minutes.

2. Real-Time Compliance Checks During Onboarding

Speed matters—especially during customer onboarding. Syncloop enables:

  • Document validation in real time using Await and webhook logic
  • Conditional flows to route customers based on risk level or location
  • Automated background checks during sign-up or account creation
  • Instant escalation for manual review when data is incomplete or flagged

This eliminates delays and reduces onboarding drop-offs while staying compliant.

3. Dynamic Risk Profiling and Customer Segmentation

Using Syncloop’s low-code logic tools:

  • Use IfElse to categorize customers by risk tier (low, medium, high)
  • Enrich customer data using Transformers to combine inputs from multiple sources
  • Trigger additional screening or enhanced due diligence based on behavior or geography

These capabilities allow your system to adapt in real-time, providing a more personalized and compliant experience.

4. Audit-Ready Logging and Reporting

Syncloop automatically logs every interaction, decision, and data flow, including:

  • API calls to verification and screening services
  • Logic paths followed during compliance checks
  • Timestamped logs and execution traces
  • User roles and actions across workflows

This makes compliance reporting and auditing easy, accurate, and defensible—helping meet regulations like GDPR, FATF, and FinCEN.

5. Automated Watchlist Screening

With Syncloop:

  • Automatically screen new and existing customers against global watchlists
  • Schedule periodic re-checks as part of continuous due diligence
  • Use visual logic to escalate positive matches to your compliance team
  • Record outcomes for audit and regulatory reporting

This reduces manual effort and ensures no customer or transaction goes unchecked.

6. Enhanced Security and Data Privacy

Syncloop is built with compliance in mind, including:

  • Token-based authentication and RBAC
  • Encrypted data transmission
  • Data masking and redaction
  • Geo-specific data routing for compliance with regional laws

These features ensure that customer data is handled with integrity, confidentiality, and transparency.

7. Multi-Environment Testing for Regulatory Accuracy

Test and validate your AML and KYC flows using isolated environments before going live:

  • Use dev, staging, and production tiers to simulate scenarios
  • Validate real-world behavior against compliance policies
  • Deploy changes confidently with approval-based publishing

This protects against unintentional violations while improving agility.
