CipherTrace Traveler Credentials
CipherTrace Traveler helps Virtual Asset Service Providers (VASPs) comply with global “Travel Rule” regulations by sharing cryptocurrency transaction information with other vetted VASPs.
When CipherTrace Traveler integration is enabled in CAS, CAS sends information about the outgoing (BUY) transaction - before sending the coin to your customer’s wallet!
Operators must obtain their own API Endpoint, Client ID and Client Secret from CipherTrace.
Transaction Originator Organization Name is Operators’s name as it will be sent to CipherTrace with every transaction information.
NOTE: the credentials for Traveler are different than those used for Transaction Scoring.
