Compliance
Natural requires identity verification to comply with federal and state financial regulations. All Parties must complete verification before they can send payments. Verification happens automatically after you submit your information through onboarding. The process typically completes within seconds, but may take up to 48 hours.
Beyond initial verification, Natural also complies with BSA/AML regulations (Bank Secrecy Act/Anti-Money Laundering) via automated transaction monitoring.
