Pricing & Plans

Art Market Participants — galleries, antique dealers, auction houses, and art advisors — have been subject to Anti-Money Laundering regulation in the EU since 5AMLD came into force in January 2020, and in the UK under the Money Laundering, Terrorist Financing and Transfer of Funds Regulations. EU Regulation 2024/1624 has since extended and strengthened these requirements, establishing the Anti-Money Laundering Authority (AMLA) to enforce consistent compliance across all EU member states.

Under these rules, any transaction — or series of linked transactions — reaching €10,000 or more triggers mandatory Customer Due Diligence (CDD) obligations. These include identity verification, sanctions screening, PEP checks, adverse media review, risk scoring, and secure record-keeping for a minimum of five years. Failure to comply can result in significant regulatory fines, reputational damage, and in serious cases, criminal liability for the business and its directors.

The Basic plan is designed for independent dealers and art advisors who conduct occasional high-value transactions and need a fast, reliable way to verify individual clients. It includes biometric identity verification with liveness detection, instant PEP and sanctions screening against OFAC, EU, FATF, Interpol, FBI, and DEA sources, automated risk scoring, and secure document storage.

The Compliance plan adds entity KYC for corporate and institutional buyers, adverse media screening across 235,000+ news sources, an internal AML audit log, and the ability to send branded secure remote verification links directly to clients — essential for galleries handling international sales, art fair transactions, and a mix of individual and corporate collectors.

The Enterprise plan is built for large galleries, auction houses, and organisations managing high verification volumes. It adds automated annual re-screening for ongoing monitoring obligations, AI-driven risk-based compliance guidance, audit-ready PDF case reports, and multi-user role management with granular permissions — giving compliance teams complete oversight from a single dashboard.

All plans are built on the same principle: compliance that fits how the art market actually operates. No legal expertise required. No manual PDF workflows. No disruption to collector relationships. Every verification produces a complete, structured client file that is immediately audit-ready if a regulator requests it.

KYCProtect also offers a 14-day free trial with 3 included verifications, so you can test the full platform — including identity verification, sanctions screening, and risk scoring — before committing to a plan. Start today and have your first client verified in under two minutes.
