How It Works

Trading Steps

How we transfer money legally and securely between the UK and Iran — through a transparent, compliant, and documented process.

Key Principles of Our Model

Fully compliant with UK law
Regulated under FCA & HMRC
No direct cross-border transfer
Traceable & documented transactions
Multi-layer AML & KYC controls
Secure & auditable structure

Why Is This Service Needed?

Many families in the UK need to send money to Iran, but banking restrictions limit access to traditional financial services.

No direct banking route

UK banks cannot transfer money directly to Iran.

SWIFT restrictions

International SWIFT transfers are blocked for many Iran-related transactions.

Risk of informal methods

Informal methods lack transparency, documentation and legal protection.

No traceability

Customers have no clear view of the real status of their transaction.

Our Solution — P2P Netting

We use a two-way matching structure known in the industry as IVTS, or P2P Netting. Requests are matched so that funds are settled locally in each country.

Key point: in this model, money never physically or electronically crosses the border.

How a Transaction Works

1

Receive funds in the UK

You pay the GBP amount into our operational account in the UK.

2

Match two reverse requests

Our system matches your order with a corresponding reverse request.

3

Local payment in Iran

The equivalent amount is delivered to the recipient in Iran through our local structure.

Why This Model Matters

No direct international transfer is made.

Benefits of the Netting Structure

Money never crosses the border
Faster than traditional methods
Lower banking & operational risk
Full documentation of transactions
Transparency & traceability
UK regulatory compliance

Direct vs Indirect P2P

Direct Model (Direct P2P)

  • A customer in Iran makes the payment directly.
  • No account of ours is part of the payment chain.
  • No intermediary enters the process.

Indirect Model (Indirect P2P)

  • Used when no direct match exists.
  • The payment is made by an intermediary from its own resources.
  • Control and documentation remain supervised.

In both models, no direct bank transfer happens between Iran and the UK — receipt is confirmed, records are kept, and the process stays under regulatory control.
