How It Works

Verify first. Then send.

Payment redirection fraud happens when a scammer swaps the bank details in an email or invoice. Transfer Guardian independently confirms who owns the receiving account before your money moves — domestic or international.

If you're sending money

Buyers, clients and individuals making a significant payment.

1

Start a verification

Enter the recipient's name and bank details, or open the verified payment link sent by your lawyer, agent, developer or dealer.

2

We check the account

Our verification team confirms the account genuinely belongs to the intended recipient — matching ownership documents, business and company registers, and independent contact checks.

3

Receive your certificate

Once confirmed, the account is issued a Gold Verified (domestic) or Premium Verified (international) badge with a tamper-proof, blockchain-backed record.

4

Wire your funds

Pay with confidence through your own bank for domestic payments, or through our licensed FX provider for international transfers at competitive rates.

If you're receiving money

Lawyers, conveyancers, agents, developers, dealers and businesses.

1

Join as a partner

Law firms, conveyancers, real estate agents, developers and car dealers sign up for a partner account.

2

Verify your receiving account once

Your trust or business account is verified by our team and stored securely.

3

Send verified payment links

Instead of emailing bank details (which scammers intercept), send clients a Transfer Guardian link showing your verified account.

4

Know when clients view it

Your dashboard shows when each link is opened, giving you a clear audit trail for every payment.

Why it gives you peace of mind

Independent check

We never rely on the bank details in an email. Ownership is confirmed independently.

Tamper-proof record

Each verification is fingerprinted with a SHA-256 hash, so any change to the details is detectable.

Fast and simple

No software to install. Verify online in minutes and receive a shareable certificate.

Transfer Guardian verifies accounts and does not hold client funds. All payments are processed through our network provider. Sending directly via Transfer Guardian is coming soon, pending AUSTRAC enrolment.
