PaidHR is committed to complying with all relevant laws and regulations, including those related to anti-money laundering (AML), counter-terrorism financing, sanctions, and export controls.
To support this, we have established policies, procedures, controls, and requirements to safeguard our platform. Also, our banking partners enforce their requirements and restrictions, which apply to specific industries, activities, and countries.
In line with global compliance requirements, we’re unable to support onboarding or payments to and from certain industries and countries.
⚠️ Failure to comply with these restrictions may lead to payment delays or rejections, and repeated violations could result in account closure.
