Account Name Verification

Sanctions Screening

Sanctions Screening is an integral component of our fraud and error prevention solution.

It mitigates the risk of fraud and bolsters internal AML measures by detecting accounts linked to financial crime.

We now enable the screening of beneficiary details against thousands of sanctions lists directly within AccessPay.

Payment Screening

Our solution prevents monetary loss by stopping fraud and error dead in its tracks.

A rules-based engine scans every payment file submitted through AccessPay, which is compatible with all domestic and cross-border payment types.

Potential threats and errors are flagged as soon as a payment file enters AccessPay to enable proactive investigation and suppress problem transactions from payment runs before they are routed.

We significantly reduce the time it takes to prepare for internal and external audits by providing full audit-logs of every transaction across your banking estate so that you can remain financially compliant.

From full paper trails of every payment submitted, to a searchable transaction database of every bank account connected to AccessPay – which can easily be exported in preparation for your next audit.

Audit reporting

"We have about 35 bank accounts integrated with AccessPay. We use it for BACS, Payroll if there’s a same-day payment to make, and our Accounts Receivable team will use it to call in any Direct Debits payments that they’re taking. So it’s well-used, by at least three different departments within the business.’"
