Large Virtual Currency

Seamlessly detect, record, and report large virtual currency transactions in compliance with FINTRAC guidelines.

Why Large Virtual Currency?

Under Canadian anti-money laundering regulations, reporting entities must submit a Large Virtual Currency Transaction Report (LVCTR) to FINTRAC when they receive amounts equivalent to $10,000 or more in virtual currency in a single transaction—or multiple related transactions within 24 hours.

This service automates the identification, documentation, and reporting of qualifying virtual currency transactions, helping businesses meet their compliance obligations efficiently and securely.
