RiskOS™ Dashboard Setup

Set up Payment Screening in the RiskOS™ Dashboard

Before you start

Make sure you have the following:

How it works

Payment Screening evaluates payment transactions in real time by screening all participants (sender, beneficiary, and intermediaries) and transaction attributes against global watchlists (Sanctions, PEP, AML).

At a high level, the workflow:

• Screens names against sanctions and PEP watchlists
• Evaluates bank identifiers (IBAN, BIC/SWIFT, routing numbers)
• Screens crypto wallet addresses
• Checks countries and jurisdictions for sanctions exposure
• Aggregates results across all entities in the transaction
• Applies decisioning logic based on matches and policy

Final outcomes could include depending on your configuration:

• Accept
• Manual Review
• Reject

How Payment Screening fits into a workflow

In RiskOS™, workflows are built by connecting reusable components. Payment Screening is delivered as a preconfigured use-case workflow composed of enrichments, conditions, and decisions.

Once triggered, the workflow screens all relevant entities and transaction attributes in a single API call and returns a unified decision outcome.

For more detail on workflow components, see Workflow Steps.

Execution flow in RiskOS™

Payment Screening runs synchronously, returning watchlist matches and match scores in real time.

1. API call to RiskOS™

   RiskOS™ receives the input data and triggers the Payment Screening workflow to screen the input identifiers against your selected watchlists.

2. Payment screening

   For each entity in your workflow, the Payment Screening step screens the input identifiers against your selected watchlists, scores the matches, and returns likely matches that meet your filters, Name Match or Entity Correlation Score threshold criteria.

3. Monitoring logic

   The workflow implements your logic to enable monitoring for screened entities based on the screening results.

4. Final decision

   RiskOS™ applies decisioning logic (Accept, Manual Review, or Reject) to complete the Payment Screening workflow.

Workflow components used by Payment Screening

Configure Payment Screening

Enable required enrichments

Your Socure account team provisions a standard Payment Screening workflow with the following entitlements:

• Payment Screening

Configure Allow / Deny lists

Configure allowlists and denylists for:

• Email addresses
• Phone numbers
• IP addresses
• Devices

These lists are evaluated early in the workflow.

Configure inputs and routing

Typical configuration steps include:

• Risk-policy conditions [Coming in June 2026]

  • Determine which jurisdiction, product, or transaction amount to apply which Watchlist policy

• Review conditions

  • Review when there is an OFAC or other Sanctions hit

• Accept and Monitoring conditions

  • Accept and monitor when there is no OFAC or other Sanctions hit

If you’re unsure how to tune thresholds or routing, reach out to support with context about your use case.

Save and publish

Once your workflow is configured, publish it to go live.

Most customers start with a Socure-provided best-practice workflow and iterate over time.
