ℹ️️ Review Process |
---|
To maintain the highest standards of compliance and effectively restrict third-party payments, a Compliance Review is automatically initiated when there is a discrepancy between the Payee's name and the End User's name, ensuring all Payment processes are transparent and secure.
We work on Compliance Review during business hours.
