AML transaction monitoring built for Nigerian fintechs

Fintegrity gives Nigerian fintechs, PSPs, microfinance banks, digital lenders, wallet providers, and remittance operators a single decision layer — real-time transaction monitoring, AML rule enforcement, alert investigation, and regulator-ready evidence, built around how money actually moves in the Nigerian market.

Why Nigeria is different

Generic AML tools weren't built for this market

Nigerian fintechs operate at a volume and velocity most AML tooling was never designed for — millions of Naira transactions a day, tiered KYC enforced against BVN and NIN, and compliance teams a fraction the size of the banks the tooling was originally built for.

KYC tiers

BVN/NIN-tiered limits, enforced live

Customer tier and transaction limit are checked at the decision layer on every transaction — not just at onboarding — so a tier breach is caught before the transaction executes, not discovered afterward.

Reporting

NFIU-aligned reporting thresholds

Rules are configurable to your institution's reporting obligations, including currency transaction thresholds and structuring detection across rolling windows and counterparties.

Volume

Built for Nigerian transaction volumes

Sub-100ms decisions at the throughput consumer wallets, PSPs, and digital lenders actually run at — not a batch job that catches suspicious activity days after the money has already moved.

Team size

Sized for lean compliance teams

Most Nigerian fintechs and microfinance banks run compliance with two or three people, not a department. Fintegrity automates the enforcement and evidence work so a small team can operate at scale.

How it works

One API call, before every transaction executes

Integrate once through the Compliance Decision API, and every transaction gets evaluated against your configured rules, the customer's risk state, and screening results — before your rails move the money.

01

Transaction reaches your backend

A customer sends, receives, or withdraws — your system captures the transaction intent.

02

One call to Fintegrity

Your backend calls the Decision API with the transaction context. Evaluation runs in parallel: KYC tier, velocity, screening, behavioural rules.

03

Decision returned

CLEAR, FLAGGED, HELD_FOR_REVIEW, or BLOCKED — with the reasons and the exact action your system should take.

04

Alerts route to case management

FLAGGED and HELD_FOR_REVIEW decisions open a structured case in Case Management with the evaluation trail pre-attached.

05

Evidence written automatically

Every decision — including every CLEAR — is logged to an append-only store, ready for an examiner request at any time.

Questions

Common questions from Nigerian fintechs

No. Fintegrity is a technology provider — compliance decisioning and evidence infrastructure — not a licensed financial institution, and not a substitute for your Money Laundering Reporting Officer or compliance team. We give your MLRO and compliance analysts the tools to enforce rules, investigate alerts, and produce evidence; the regulatory responsibility and judgment remain with your institution.

Yes — Fintegrity enforces KYC tier limits and configurable Naira transaction thresholds at the decision layer, before a transaction is authorised. Tier limits and threshold values are configured per your institution and should be verified against the current CBN circular in force at the time you configure them, since these figures are periodically updated by the regulator.

No. Fintegrity orchestrates the decision — it sits at the point a transaction is evaluated and pulls in your existing KYC verification result, screening provider's match data, and your configured rules to produce one decision. You keep your existing vendors; Fintegrity is the layer that acts on their output in real time.

Sub-100ms P99 in typical configurations, returned synchronously before your payment rail executes the transaction. The exact figure depends on which rules and external checks are configured to run inline.

Yes. Every decision, rule fired, and state change is written to an append-only evidence store, and a complete evidence pack for any customer or transaction can be generated on demand — turning what used to be a multi-day reconstruction into a query.

Fintegrity is built real-time-first — decisions happen before money moves, not in an overnight batch. If your institution currently runs batch monitoring, Fintegrity sits in front of it as a pre-authorisation layer rather than requiring you to rebuild your existing batch processes on day one.
