Updated July 1st, 2024

Gift Card XS (the “Company”), incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware offers services related to the purchase and sale of digital assets.

The Company is registered as a Money Services Business with the United States Treasury Department’s Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (“FinCEN”). The Company’s Anti-Money Laundering (“AML”) policies and procedures are designed to deter illicit activities on the Website, protect the users, the business, and the digital currencies and financial services communities from exploitation by criminals. The Company is compliant with the requirements of the Bank Secrecy Act and related FinCEN regulations and guidance.

As part of the Company’s Compliance policies, Know Your Customer (“KYC”) policies and procedures for individual and institutional customers have been designed to enable the Company to form a reasonable belief that it knows the true identity of those of its customers for which such review has been performed. The policy applies to all users on the platform and is followed by all of the Company’s employees, consultants, officers, owners and directors.

Using a risk-based approach as part of KYC & AML Compliance, the Company has taken the following measures:

Appointment of a Chief Compliance Officer who has the sufficient level of expertise and independence, has responsibility for the oversight of compliance with the relevant legislation, regulations, rules and industry guidance;
Establishing and maintaining risk-based KYC, Customer Due Diligence (CDD), and Enhanced Due Diligence (EDD) Policy;
Establishing risk-based tiers for verification of the Company’s users;
Cooperation with law enforcement requests and local regulatory requirements;
Filing of Suspicious Activity Reports (“SARs”);
Company-wide BSA/AML/OFAC training;
Use of various anti-fraud systems;
Ongoing rule-based transaction monitoring;
Investigations using blockchain analytics;

We file SARs if we know, suspect or have reason to suspect suspicious activities have occurred on our platform. A suspicious transaction is often one that is inconsistent with a user’s known and legitimate business, personal activities or personal means. Our Chief Compliance Officer reviews and investigates suspicious activity to determine if sufficient information has been collected to justify the filing of a SAR. Our Chief Compliance Officer maintains records and supporting documentation of all SARs that have been filed.The Company has also adopted ongoing OFAC sanctions policies and procedures designed to protect the platform from being used for prohibited transactions, by sanctioned individuals or for the purposes of evading, avoiding or otherwise circumventing U.S. and global sanctions.The Company fully cooperates with all OFAC, Specially Designated Nationals (SDN) and Blocked persons sanctions lists.
