AML Policy

Anti-Money Laundering and Counter-Terrorism Financing compliance program for Gletra financial operations, wallet, and marketplace transactions.

Updated June 19, 2026 4 min read Official Gletra Policy

Gletra Technologies Pvt. Ltd. is committed to preventing money laundering, terrorist financing, and financial crime across our marketplace, Gletra Wallet, seller settlements, and home service payment systems. This Anti-Money Laundering (AML) Policy establishes our compliance framework aligned with applicable Indian regulations including PMLA guidelines and RBI prepaid payment instrument requirements.

Gletra implements Customer Due Diligence (CDD), Enhanced Due Diligence (EDD), transaction monitoring, suspicious activity reporting, and employee training as core components of our AML program. All users engaging in financial transactions on Gletra are subject to these controls.

This policy applies to buyers, sellers, service providers, and any entity using Gletra payment, wallet, or settlement services. Gletra cooperates fully with the Financial Intelligence Unit — India (FIU-IND) and law enforcement agencies as required by law.

Violations of AML requirements may result in account termination, transaction blocking, asset freezing, and mandatory reporting to authorities without prior user notification where legally prohibited.

Gletra employs automated systems monitoring for:

  • Structuring: multiple transactions just below reporting thresholds
  • Rapid wallet top-up and immediate withdrawal cycles
  • Unusual seller payout patterns inconsistent with sales history
  • High refund rates combined with new account activity

When Gletra identifies suspicious activity that may indicate money laundering or terrorist financing, we file Suspicious Transaction Reports (STRs) with FIU-IND as required by law. Users are not notified of SAR filings where notification is prohibited.

Indicators include: inability to explain source of funds, reluctance to provide KYC documents, transactions with no apparent economic purpose, and use of multiple accounts to obscure identity.

Frequently Asked Questions

Withdrawals may be held for AML review when they exceed normal patterns, occur shortly after large top-ups, or match risk indicators. Provide requested documentation via kyc@gletra.com. Review typically completes within 3 business days.

Gletra reports suspicious transactions to FIU-IND as required by law. Routine legitimate transactions are not reported. Transaction data may be shared with regulators during lawful investigations.

Gletra Wallet is for platform-related transactions. Using wallet for circular fund movement, pass-through transactions, or non-platform purposes violates AML policy and may result in account termination.

Additional verification for higher-risk users including source of funds documentation, senior approval for account opening, and enhanced transaction monitoring. Applied based on risk scoring, not arbitrary selection.

Gletra does not support cryptocurrency payments or wallet conversion. Attempts to use Gletra for crypto-related money movement violate this AML policy.

Automated monitoring analyzes sales patterns, refund rates, buyer diversity, payout timing, and KYC data. Anomalous patterns trigger compliance review before settlement release.
