ACCOUNT SECURITY

Layered verification for business accounts

Depending on account features and settings, account verification, session management, unusual-activity detection, and permission controls can help reduce the risk of unauthorized login or actions.

Two-Factor Authentication

Add an extra verification step beyond the password to help reduce unauthorized access risk.

Roles and Permissions

Limit visible data, available features, and permitted actions based on each member's responsibilities.

Sensitive-Action Approvals

Eligible accounts can add verification or approvals for important payments, fund movements, and card actions.

Unusual Login Detection

Identify unusual activity based on login device, location, and behavior, and require re-verification where necessary.

TEAM PERMISSION MANAGEMENT

Help ensure every member performs only authorized actions

Businesses can assign roles and permissions based on each member's responsibilities. Eligible accounts can add verification or multi-level approval for important payments, fund movements, and other sensitive actions.

  • View business accounts, balances, and transactions
  • Create or approve payments
  • Manage recipients
  • Manage global and virtual accounts
  • Manage FTP Cards and spending limits

DATA SECURITY & PRIVACY

Protect business, customer, and transaction data

We apply technical and administrative measures proportionate to risk and manage access to sensitive data according to its nature, operational need, and authorization scope.

Need-to-know access

Only authorized personnel with a legitimate work need may handle the relevant data.

  • Business registration information
  • Director and ultimate beneficial owner information
  • Identity documents
  • Bank accounts and wallet addresses
  • FTP Card data
  • Payment information
  • Transaction and login records
  • Customer communications and supporting information
TRANSACTION SECURITY & RISK MONITORING

Identify unusual and high-risk activity

Deposits, transfers, conversions, withdrawals, and FTP Card spending may be risk-assessed according to product and transaction context. An account or transaction that triggers risk rules may be referred for further review.

  • Transaction amount and frequency
  • Source and purpose of funds
  • Sender and recipient
  • Transaction country or region
  • Currencies and payment networks used
  • Merchant category
  • Wallet addresses and related activity

PRODUCT SECURITY CONTROLS

Put the right controls in place before funds move

Different products use different confirmation, limit, and attribution mechanisms to help businesses reduce operational risk before collections, payments, and team spending occur.

FTP CARD

Manage budgets and risk before spending begins

Assign a cardholder, available balance, and spending limits to each FTP Card, and pause, freeze, or terminate cards when needed.

  • Per-transaction, daily, and monthly limits
  • Automatic top-ups and low-balance alerts
  • Separate card and transaction records
ACCOUNTS

Give every incoming payment a clear owner

Link global and virtual accounts to a specific business, customer, or use case to help reduce ambiguity around funds.

  • Dedicated payment details
  • Payer and reference
  • Transaction ID, amount, and currency
TRANSFERS

Confirm critical details before creating a payment

Check the recipient, account, currency, exchange rate, fees, and expected amount received before creating a cross-border transfer.

  • Recipient and bank details
  • Exchange rate, fees, and payment route
  • Payment purpose and amount received

Available controls and handling methods depend on enabled business account features, product rules, service region, and transaction context.

API SECURITY

Integrate business financial services securely

Fast Track Pathway APIs can manage access between systems through credentials, permission scopes, request verification, and audit records.

Depending on enabled API capabilities, security controls may include:

  • API credential authentication
  • Permission scope restrictions
  • Request and webhook signature verification
  • Rate limits
  • Audit logs
  • Credential rotation and revocation
  • Separate test and production environments

Businesses should store API keys securely and never expose them in front-end code, public repositories, or unencrypted documents. API capabilities depend on business account permissions.

Security incident response and customer responsibilities

Platform controls and internal business security practices work together to protect accounts, data, and financial operations more effectively.

When a security incident is detected

Depending on the incident, we may take appropriate protective measures and notify affected customers as required by applicable law and the impact of the incident.

  • Pause sensitive account actions
  • Revoke relevant login sessions
  • Require identity re-verification
  • Pause or freeze affected FTP Cards
  • Investigate related accounts and transactions
  • Take remediation and ongoing monitoring measures appropriate to the incident

Protecting accounts together with customers

Businesses should establish clear account, permission, and payment-verification practices and act promptly when unusual activity is detected.

  • Use a unique, strong password
  • Enable two-factor authentication
  • Never share login credentials
  • Review team roles and permissions regularly
  • Update permissions immediately when members leave or change roles
  • Recheck recipient details before making a payment
