— COMPLIANCE & REGULATION

Our regulatory posture is the product.

Most aggregators stop at "we connect banks." Xend holds the licences that let those banks accept the flow. That's the difference between a router and an institution — and it's why you can settle through us without standing up a local entity.
— LICENCES & REGISTRATIONS

Authorised on both sides of every corridor.

We carry origination in Canada and settlement in the UEMOA zone under our own licences, with messaging and security credentials to match.

— CUSTODY OF FUNDS

Where your money sits, and who holds it.

Funds in transit are held in segregated accounts at named partner institutions — never commingled with operating capital. Each corridor balance is reconciled continuously, and failed payouts return to that balance atomically, so nothing is ever in flight without being accounted for.

Partners receive an explicit statement of which regulated entity carries their funds at each leg: Xend Financial Services Inc. on origination, Xend UEMOA SA on settlement.
— SCREENING & MONITORING

Every transaction passes a governance engine.

Sanctions screening, behavioural monitoring, and central-bank reporting run at the edge of every flow — under our licences, on your behalf.
01

Sanctions & PEP

Rule-based screening against sanctions and politically-exposed-person lists on initiation, before funds move.
02

Behavioural monitoring

Pattern detection for structuring and atypical activity, with suspicious-activity reports filed for the corridor.
03

Central-bank reporting

Per-batch reports formatted for BCEAO submission, with full audit trails available in the dashboard.
