Every safeguarding number needs a witness.

Close safeguarding with evidence across internal transactions, provider settlements, account movements and merchant payouts for UK payment and e-money teams.

10-business-day evidence diagnostic for one UK authorised PI or EMI, one entity and one segregation method, from £5,000 after a controlled data-shape review.

Finentro traces the daily position from source record to reviewer decision. Deterministic arithmetic, visible breaks and accountable human approval.

Every figure retains its source reference, calculation route and review status. Missing evidence stays missing.

Built for the person who must explain the number tomorrow morning.

The daily risk is not arithmetic. It is proving the path.

A merchant sale becomes a provider record, a settlement batch, an account credit and eventually a payout. When one link is weak, the safeguarding conclusion is weak too.

Finentro does not match by amount alone. Duplicate, missing or conflicting evidence remains an attributed exception.

A four-link evidence chain, then a human decision.

Three reports are required. A separate payout register is optional and must be selected explicitly if used.

  1. 1

    Internal transactions

    Anchor each sale with merchant, internal and provider transaction IDs, date, amount and currency.

  2. 2

    Provider settlements

    Recalculate gross, fees and net, then group exact settlement batches.

  3. 3

    Account credits and debits

    Link settlement credits and merchant payout debits by reference, merchant identity and currency.

  4. 4

    Candidate outstanding merchant funds

    Roll opening candidate amounts plus sales less expected payouts, with exceptions and source rows attached.

Every result should answer: show me the evidence.

Select a synthetic row to inspect its calculation, source lineage, boundary and required human action.

The engine links records. Your firm determines treatment.

Raw sales are not the legal safeguarding requirement. The regulated institution owns scope, methodology and approval.

Designed for a narrow, accountable first engagement.

Good fit

  • A UK authorised PI or EMI using the segregation method.
  • One entity with agreed currencies and identifiable transaction, settlement, account and payout records.
  • Synthetic or formally approved test extracts can be shared through agreed secure controls.
  • A Safeguarding Officer and operational reviewers can own methodology and decisions.

Not a fit

  • You need legal advice, an audit opinion or FCA certification.
  • You need Finentro to move funds, execute payouts or remediate a shortfall.
  • You want to upload production data to the public workbench or send it by email.
  • You need an automated legal safeguarding requirement without accountable human approval.

Evidence software outside the money flow.

Finentro does not receive, hold, settle, redirect or pay merchant funds.

Questions a buyer should ask before starting.

Is the candidate closing amount the legal safeguarding requirement?

No. It is an operational evidence roll-forward. The Safeguarding Officer must determine scope and treatment under the firm's approved methodology.

Does Finentro infer the merchant payout source?

No. The user must select internal report, provider report or a separate payout register. Conflicting populated sources are rejected.

Can Finentro move an unmatched amount?

No. It reports the exception and remains outside the money flow.

Can real data be used in the public workbench?

No. Use synthetic data only. Contact info@saffintech.com without attaching data to discuss a controlled diagnostic.

Make the next safeguarding review easier to defend.

Start with one entity, one method and the data your team already uses. No production data by email.
