Swaps on FuguSwap get filtered before they settle. This document explains that filter — what it does, what it skips, and what happens when an order stalls. Where this page and the Terms of Service disagree, the Terms win.
1. Machines, Not Paperwork
Screening here is software-driven. Each deposit is judged by rules and signals we maintain in-house — enough to approve, pause, or bounce a swap, nothing more.
That is the full extent of our AML posture. We do not onboard clients through document review, employ a named compliance lead, or route identity papers to a third-party verifier. KYC and KYB simply are not part of FuguSwap.
2. What the Filter Looks At
- Incoming and outgoing chain data, the pair, amounts, and whether the order touches names on our restricted list (see Terms of Service).
- Patterns that trip internal thresholds — handled silently, with no breakdown sent to the user.
- Jurisdiction and platform bans baked into the same pipeline.
You will not receive a report card: no risk score, no "high-risk wallet" label, no explanation of which rule fired. The decision stands on its own.
3. When an Order Stops
- A flagged swap freezes until we align with you on what happens next.
- Silence for 60 minutes after the freeze → automatic return to the sender or to the refund address named at order creation.
- Tricky refunds — no return address on file, swap already failed, money arrived from a contract or other source that does not map cleanly to a person — stay frozen until you supply a destination. The clock above does not start until that destination is real.
4. What We Will Never Ask For
Passports, selfies, company charters, bank statements proving origin of funds — none of it. If support messages you about a stuck order, it is to unblock the swap (usually a return address), not to verify you.
Creating an account remains optional; the exchange path itself carries zero identity steps.
5. Funds Flow, We Do Not Stockpile
Like the rest of the service, AML review does not turn FuguSwap into a custodian. Coins pass through; we do not sit on user balances while deciding.
6. Inside the Black Box
Review outputs — flags, scores, notes — stay inside our systems. Users and random third parties do not get copies. Legal compulsion is the only exception we recognise.
7. Revisions
Rules and lists evolve. Check the date at the top; continued swapping after an edit means you accept the new wording.
