Jeremy Allaire, the co-founder and CEO at Circle, announced on September 24 that Circle was launching the Compliance Engine to help companies build on-chain while checking all boxes for compliance demands. He added that the Compliance platform would be automatically integrated with Circle Programmable Wallets as a service offering for developers.&nbsp;&nbsp;
Allaire disclosed that the Compliance Engine would include a ‘Transaction Screening’ tool to detect risky transactions, a ‘Transaction Monitoring’ tool to identify potential high-risk behaviors, and ‘Travel Rule’ services to help companies maintain compliance with global travel rules. 
According to Circle, the Compliance Engine for programmable wallets was now live on Circle Console. The USDC issuer affirmed that the latest addition to its infrastructure platform helped businesses protect their users easily through automated and customizable compliance checks.

The CEO of Circle, Jeremy Allaire, revealed that the second-largest stablecoin issuer was unveiling a new tool for programmable wallets that would be focused on compliance. Allaire said that companies could now build on-chain while maintaining strict demands for compliance, such as the FATF Travel Rule. 
According to the stablecoin developer, the platform provided ways to automatically enforce and customize checks for regulatory compliance in various dApps (decentralized applications).
Circle’s official website confirmed that the Compliance Engine would feature a ‘one-stop console’ through which users would be able to flag real-time transactions, integrate APIs and analyze data, set up lists of blocked wallets connected to known or suspected bad actors, report transactions to relevant authorities, and conduct long-running investigations. 
The website also revealed that the compliance tool would support blockchains linked to Circle’s programmable wallets tool, including Solana, Ethereum, Avalanche, and Polygon POS, among others.&nbsp;&nbsp;
<blockquote>
 “We’ve built up tremendous capabilities in this area over the past decade, and we’re now taking those capabilities and exposing them to developers and operations teams that are building financial applications onchain.”
 –Jeremy Allaire

According to Circle’s website, developers would be charged on a monthly ‘pay-as-you-grow’ model. The stablecoin issuer confirmed that the new Compliance Engine was ‘granularly tailored to various business requirements, it ‘removed multi-system hassles,’ it ‘tapped into an established infrastructure,’ and it ‘increased operational efficiency with confidence.’

According to Circle, adherence to or awareness of applicable regulatory requirements was critical in navigating complex systems offering innovative products and services. The USDC issuer <a href="https://www.circle.com/hubfs/PDFs/Whitepapers/ComplianceEngine_whitepaper.pdf?" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" target="_blank">explained</a> that failure to comply with regulations had detrimental consequences for a company’s consumers, investors, and the global financial services ecosystem.&nbsp;
The USDC issuer believes the Compliance Engine was necessary due to the rigorous scrutiny faced by blockchain services from regulators, payment service providers, and banking partners. According to CIrcle, prioritizing compliance and investing in the right solutions minimized risks and served as a valuable differentiator separating businesses committed to long-term growth.
Notably, while the Transaction Screening tool was available in a beta version, the Transaction Monitoring tool and the Travel Rule service were yet to be unveiled.
As of the time of writing, users could sign up for a Circle Console account and start configuring their Compliance Engine on testnet absolutely free.
