Stored Value Cards: A Compliance Guide
Blog post from Didit
Stored value cards (SVCs), including prepaid and gift cards, have become prevalent in commerce, offering convenience for consumers but also navigating a complex regulatory landscape aimed at consumer protection and crime prevention. Key regulations like the Bank Secrecy Act (BSA), the USA PATRIOT Act, and the Dodd-Frank Act require businesses to implement Anti-Money Laundering (AML) programs, including Know Your Customer (KYC) verification and transaction monitoring, to prevent money laundering and terrorist financing. Additionally, state laws and federal rules, such as those issued by the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB), address consumer protections related to fees, expiration dates, and liability for lost or stolen cards. Compliance best practices for businesses include implementing robust AML programs, developing comprehensive compliance manuals, providing clear disclosures, employee training, staying updated on regulatory changes, and conducting regular audits. The identity platform Didit offers tools to simplify compliance with identity verification, AML screening, and transaction monitoring, helping businesses navigate the evolving regulatory environment effectively.
