How industry leaders are handling
the Travel Rule with Sumsub

The Travel Rule requires Virtual Asset Service Providers (VASPs) to exchange personal information of transaction senders and recipients. With so many different protocols proposed for compliance, finding the right solution was a considerable challenge. With Sumsub’s Travel Rule solution, Guardarian can now automate data transfers across the widest protocol coverage and ensure worldwide compliance with the latest regulatory requirements

FAQ

  • Why is there no single global Travel Rule protocol?

    While the Travel Rule is widely adopted, regulators don’t mandate how data should be exchanged. As a result, multiple private providers have built separate, often incompatible protocols.

  • What happens if counterparties use different protocols?

    If the sender and recipient VASPs are on incompatible systems, the data exchange can fail or be delayed. Sumsub prevents this by aggregating protocols and enabling secure fallback delivery.

  • What makes Sumsub’s approach different?

    Unlike providers that rely on a single protocol, Sumsub integrates with multiple systems and adds a secure email fallback—maximizing reach and reducing failed transactions.
