Overview
GetBlock Crypto AML is a compliance-grade risk-screening service for crypto addresses and transactions
GetBlock Crypto AML is a compliance-grade risk-screening service for crypto addresses and transactions. Paste a wallet or a transaction hash, and get back a structured risk report — a composite score, an exposure breakdown, and FATF-aligned flags — in seconds.
It is built to give small teams, exchanges, OTC desks and individual traders the same FATF-aligned data and scoring that large compliance vendors offer, but without KYB, annual contracts, or lengthy onboarding. The same account and the same credit balance power both the browser UI and the REST API.
The problem it solves
Before you accept, send, or clear crypto funds, you often need to know: has this wallet touched sanctioned entities, darknet markets, mixers, ransomware, or scams? Crypto AML answers that by tracing the address's on-chain history, wallet-to-wallet links, direct counterparty interactions, and public sanctions data — then condensing it into a decision-ready report.
Typical uses:
Screen a counterparty before a transfer, while it is still reversible.
Accept incoming funds safely so a downstream exchange doesn't flag or lock the deposit.
Onboard customers / KYT — screen wallets during onboarding or ongoing monitoring.
Supported networks
Crypto AML currently covers five networks — chosen because they carry the bulk of emerging-market exchange and remittance volume:
ETH
Ethereum
TRX
TRON
BTC
Bitcoin
LTC
Litecoin
BCH
Bitcoin Cash
More networks are on the roadmap (Solana, Arbitrum, Optimism). The currencyTag used in the API path is the tag from the table above (e.g. ETH, BTC).
Sources of signals
The engine combines on-chain and off-chain data:
On-chain — behavioural patterns, wallet clusters, counterparty flow, smart contract exposure etc.
Off-chain — sanctions feeds, public attribution data, law-enforcement intelligence.
For the full model, thresholds, and how these combine into a score, see How risk scoring works.
How to use?
Crypto AML exposes the data through two paths:
Web — a convenient browser flow: pick a network, paste a wallet or transaction, read the report, export a PDF, and keep an audit-ready history under your account.
REST API — three bearer-authenticated endpoints for developers who want to wire screening into their own backend.
Prepaid credits are burned in the UI and via the API draw from the same balance.
Pricing
Choose the model that fits how you work. With Pay-as-you-go, you top up a prepaid balance and we deduct it per check — starting from ~$0.20 / check, with no subscriptions and no minimums. Top up anytime with a card or crypto. Prefer to buy in bulk? Our let you purchase packages of checks upfront and pay a lower per-check rate — the larger the package, the bigger the discount.
