Sanctions Clear checks each name against OFAC, UK, EU, UN and four more lists when you connect, again when a contact changes or turns up on a new bill or invoice, and in a full rescreen every month. The result is noted on the contact. From the Growth plan up, each check is filed on a certificate you can hand to a bank or auditor.
For QuickBooks Online and Xero. From $29 a month.

Lists screened, fetched from source every 6 to 24 hours:
01
Sign in with your QuickBooks or Xero login and approve access. Your trial starts straight away, with no card needed.
02
Every active vendor and customer is screened when you connect. After that, a contact is checked again when it is edited, when it turns up on a bill or invoice after a list update, and in a full rescreen every month.
03
You get an email and the contact gets a note. Open the review, see why it scored, then clear it with a reason or confirm it. Each decision goes on a dated certificate.
A bank's sanctions questionnaire, an auditor, or a large customer's supplier review all ask the same thing: show me you checked. Each certificate names the counterparty, the lists and their versions, the result, and who cleared any possible match and why.
What's on a certificate
Banks and customers ask how you check OFAC and US export lists. Send them the log.
Funders and auditors ask whether grantees were screened before you paid them.
Primes push screening down the supply chain and want proof at renewal.
Since June 2022, OFSI can fine a business without proving it knew. A dated record shows the check was done.
Screen every client file from one dashboard, priced per file.
