This listing has one pricing dimension: 30,000 annual transactions. You commit to a set annual volume of screening transactions under a contract. Each transaction screens a payment against sanctions and PEP (Politically Exposed Persons) databases. Pricing is based on the number of transactions you screen over the year, not on individual features. All screening capabilities come with this single volume-based unit. Because there is only one dimension, your cost is tied directly to the annual transaction count you purchase.
Top-of-mind questions for buyers
What counts as one screening transaction against my 30,000 annual allowance?
Each payment you screen counts as one transaction. Screening checks the sender, receiver, and intermediary banks, BIC codes, and reference text against sanctions and PEP databases. A single payment with multiple parties and BIC hits still counts as one transaction toward your annual volume.
What payment types can I screen under this transaction allowance?
You can screen common payment schemes, including bank transfers and immediate payment services. Screening covers counterparty names, customer names, institution names, BIC codes, and reference text. You can also screen against your own custom blocklists of individuals or legal entities.
What data does each transaction screen against, and how current is it?
Each transaction screens against global sanctions lists and PEP (Politically Exposed Persons) data. Sanctions lists refresh within minutes of publication, so you screen against current data. PEP records update daily. This currency applies to every transaction in your annual allowance.

Hawk's Payment Screening software helps you block sanctioned and high-risk transactions in real time, across every payment rail, through a single API. Detection AI screens each payment as it happens without slowing legitimate payments down. Contextual AI infers missing data, like a counterparty's gender or entity type, to resolve ambiguous hits accurately. This cuts false positive payment holds without weakening your defenses. In a client's independent SWIFT test, Hawk caught 8 points more sanctions risk than their incumbent system, with 27 points less noise. One payments provider cut transactions wrongly blocked due to false positive sanctions risk by 55%. Agentic AI extends this further. Hawk's Screening Review Agent researches hits across public and internal sources. It recommends or completes disposition steps for your team to review. You configure fuzzy matching and list logic yourself, self-serve, and test changes in a live sandbox before going live.

User-Friendly and Intuitive, with Standout Tagging Functionality
Reviewed on Oct 27, 2026
Review provided by G2
What do you like best about the product?
ComplyAdvantage offers a user-friendly and intuitive experience that makes it easy to navigate and use. The tagging functionality is particularly helpful, as it allows us to easily differentiate between different types of results and quickly identify the information we need.
What do you dislike about the product?
The adverse media screening results could be improved, as I find ComplyAdvantage performs more effectively for sanctions screening and PEP checks than for identifying relevant adverse media hits. Improving the relevance and accuracy of adverse media results would make the platform even more effective.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
ComplyAdvantage helps streamline our compliance screening processes by enabling us to efficiently identify potential sanctions matches, PEPs, and adverse media. This supports more effective risk identification, reduces the need for manual research, and helps us make more informed decisions while improving overall efficiency and consistency in our compliance processes.

Clean, Intuitive UI That Makes Alert Review Clear and Efficient
Reviewed on Oct 20, 2026
Review provided by G2
What do you like best about the product?
I like the UI because it’s clean and easy to look at. It gives the user a clear view of how many items need to be reviewed, and what’s required to clear an alert.
What do you dislike about the product?
Some of the details on the list are not updated. For example, with FBI Most Wanted, there are individuals who have a DOB listed, but the data in ComplyAdvantage doesn’t include it. If the DOB information were available, it would be easier to clear the alert, or it might not have triggered an alert at all. Another issue is that it doesn’t show the country for company hits. Because of that, the agent has to click into the alert details just to check the country, even though it could already be clearable if the country were shown on the case page.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
They update the UI from time to time, so navigation and working through the queue feels seamless.
