From 1 July 2026, accountants, lawyers, and real estate agents in Australia must comply with AUSTRAC's AML/CTF obligations. Compliance officer notification is required by 30 May 2026.
Instead of adding a separate AML platform — and a multi-week consulting engagement — IdentityCheck runs compliance checks inside the practice software your team already uses. AUSTRAC has indicated zero tolerance from 1 July; civil penalties extend to $33M for corporate non-compliance.
Learn about Tranche 2 prep →Real outcomes from firms running IdentityCheck inside their practice software today.
"Onboarding dropped from over an hour to under five minutes. The team didn't need any retraining — it's right there in the software they already use."
"We estimate at least a 5–10× ROI from IdentityCheck. The compliance work that used to swallow days now runs in the background."
"It's been a well-oiled machine. Our clients have a smoother experience and we have a cleaner audit trail."
AML House is a hybrid: a Sydney-based lawyer-led consultancy plus a standalone compliance platform (ComplianceGPT) starting at $799/month. Their core offer is legal-grade AML/CTF advisory paired with software. IdentityCheck is a pure software product that runs inside the practice management software your team already uses — no consulting, no standalone platform, transparent monthly pricing typically below $799/month for the relevant tier.
The technology layer, yes — KYC verification, AML screening (PEP, Sanctions, Adverse Media), risk assessment, ongoing monitoring, dual record-keeping (PMS plus 7-year vault), AUSTRAC-ready audit reports, and Know Your Employee screening. For firms also needing a full AML/CTF compliance program (policy, documentation, ongoing program governance), our partner network covers the program-structure side.
It is already in production with Tranche 2-bound firms. The Tranche 2 workflow has been live since early 2026, with the AUSTRAC enrolment process supported and the 30 May 2026 compliance officer notification deadline factored into onboarding guidance.
Native integrations with XPM, Karbon, FYI, HubSpot, Pipedrive, Salesforce, MYOB, Xero, QuickBooks, NetSuite, Greatsoft, Employment Hero, Zapier, and 100+ others. AML House's ComplianceGPT platform is standalone — it does not run inside XPM, Karbon, HubSpot, or any practice management software.
IdentityCheck has published pricing (Starter, Professional, Business tiers) with per-check pricing of approximately $7 per check. Month-to-month, no lock-in. AML House's compliance platform starts at $799/month; legal advisory services are quoted separately. For firms wanting clean software at SMB-friendly pricing, IdentityCheck is materially cheaper.
Yes. Self-service signup, no minimum commitment, free trial without a sales call. The Starter tier is purpose-built for sole practitioners and small accounting firms preparing for Tranche 2 without the budget for an enterprise consulting engagement.
No setup fees. No lock-in. Live the same day. Built for Australian firms.
