What AUSTRAC AML compliance actually requires

Many firms start their AML process by collecting client information via a form tool like Content Snare. That's a reasonable first step — but it's only the first step. Here's the full picture.

The gap: Content Snare collects client-submitted information. AUSTRAC requires that information to be independently verified (via biometric ID check), screened (sanctions, PEP, adverse media), risk-assessed (structured scoring), and retained for 7 years. Content Snare does none of these steps — firms doing this manually are exposed to compliance risk.

Frequently asked questions

Can Content Snare be used for AUSTRAC AML compliance?

Content Snare can collect client information and documents as part of an AML intake process. However, it does not include biometric ID verification, automated screening, risk assessment, ongoing monitoring, or AUSTRAC-compliant record-keeping. Firms using Content Snare for AML data collection still need to complete the rest of the workflow manually or with additional tools.

What does IdentityCheck do that Content Snare doesn't?

Content Snare collects information — it's a forms tool. IdentityCheck verifies that information through biometric ID checks, screens it against global databases, assesses risk, and retains records for 7 years. In an AUSTRAC AML workflow, Content Snare covers intake; IdentityCheck covers everything from verification onwards.

Can I use Content Snare and IdentityCheck together?

Yes — some firms use Content Snare for general client requests (tax prep, year-end documents) and IdentityCheck for the AML compliance workflow. IdentityCheck includes its own intake form for AML purposes, so there's no need to duplicate that step in Content Snare.
