Use at POS


Once enabled, the OFAC check will happen when you complete a POS transaction that includes a Trade/Buy.  If there is a potential match this window will appear.

The OFAC Warning window will show potential matches along with the probability that they are a true match.  This probability is based on comparing both the name and address.

If you Believe the Match may be Valid:

  1. Navigate to https://sanctionssearch.ofac.treas.gov/  and run the search with the customer’s name and address to verify the match is real.
  2. Validate the customer information is accurate.
  3. Follow the steps outlined here:
