Governance & Transparency Commitment

How we verify and screen money transfers to Iran in alignment with international guidelines and security standards.

Screening Process

All transaction requests are manually screened in reference to standard sanctions lists, PEP databases, and AML checks. We verify sender details and review each request in reference to the personal-remittance guidelines that apply in the sending country.

Prohibited Transfers

Business settlement, commercial trade import/export funding, property acquisition, and transfers to sanctioned legal entities are not allowed. Our platform only facilitates personal, non-commercial family support remittances.

Quote Verification

To ensure safety, exchange rates and recipient bank card numbers are verified with our Telegram support team. We will confirm the recipient's Shetab card owner's name before you execute a local bank transfer.
