With Elliptic’s solutions, FOMO Pay can maintain comprehensive digital asset compliance capabilities in a fast-growing and increasingly regulated market. FOMO Pay utilizes the RiskTech firm’s wallet intelligence tool to screen digital currency wallets and its transaction intelligence functionality to screen transactions in real time. The RiskTech firm’s multi-asset screening tool also enables FOMO Pay to trace cross-asset and cross-chain activities.
Lim Wee Teck, Head of Compliance at FOMO Pay said, “One of the main reasons we partnered with Elliptic was for their high asset coverage, in-depth data intelligence, and quick turn-around time, which allow for accurate and efficient identification of anomalies in digital asset transactions as compared to conventional manual eye-balling methodologies. This has allowed us to scale our operations efficiently while ensuring compliance in the field of digital asset business.”
Through strategic system implementation, FOMO Pay has successfully enhanced its capabilities to support larger volumes of platform flows, elevate the client experience, minimize friction, and ensure adherence to anti-money laundering (AML) and crime-prevention obligations.
