Real-time AML/CFT sanctions screening built for African financial institutions. Proven in production. Priced for African fintechs.
African fintechs face tightening CBN, BoG, and BCC enforcement — but have no affordable, Africa-native sanctions screening solution. The options have been: overpay, underprepare, or build from scratch.
Built for European banks. No NFIU list. No understanding of African corridors. Completely out of reach for African PSPs and MFBs.
$50K–$200K to build. Then you still need to maintain list updates, build the compliance review workflow, and pass CBN examination.
Spreadsheet-based checks leave no audit trail. One regulatory examination finding can result in fines, licence suspension, or worse.
Production-proven. NFIU-integrated. CBN audit-ready. Live in 2 days via REST API. Built and operated by an African fintech — for African fintechs.
Every payment your platform processes passes through a 5-stage screening pipeline before funds move. Automated for 95% of transactions. Human review only when it matters.
Your platform calls POST /api/v1/screen with beneficiary name, nationality, amount, and corridor.
1.95M+ entries across OFAC, UN, EU, NFIU and country-specific lists screened using fuzzy name matching.
Composite scoring: name similarity, nationality, DOB, transaction velocity, country risk. 0–100 score in <200ms.
PROCEED automatically. HOLD for compliance officer review. BLOCK with STR filing support for confirmed matches.
Every decision logged with officer, timestamp, and reason. CBN and BoG examination-ready reports generated.
We screen against every major international list plus country-specific African regulatory datasets. Updated daily. No manual downloads. No missed updates.
Every global compliance vendor was built for European and US banks, then "expanded" to Africa as an afterthought. ScreenShield was built for African corridors from day one.
