Security

Your money is protected. Full stop.

Wasl uses the same security infrastructure as the world's leading financial institutions. Here's exactly what that means for you.

Certifications & compliance

Built to banking standards.

We don't cut corners on security. Every layer of Wasl โ€” from account creation to payouts โ€” is built to meet the highest financial security standards.

How we protect you

Security in every layer.

01

Identity verification (KYC)

Every account goes through a rigorous Know Your Customer process using AI-powered document verification and liveness detection โ€” so only you can open an account in your name.

02

Two-factor authentication

Every login and sensitive action requires a second verification โ€” via biometric, SMS, or authenticator app. Even if someone has your password, they can't access your account.

03

Real-time fraud monitoring

Our systems monitor every transaction 24/7 for suspicious activity. Unusual behavior triggers instant alerts and automatic holds โ€” before damage is done.

04

Instant card freeze

Lost your card? Freeze it instantly from the app. No waiting, no calls โ€” just tap to lock it. Unfreeze when you find it, or request a new one in seconds.

05

Segregated funds

Your money is held in segregated accounts at our FDIC-insured partner bank โ€” completely separate from Wasl's operational funds. Your balance is always yours.

06

End-to-end encryption

All data โ€” account numbers, transaction history, personal details โ€” is encrypted with 256-bit AES both at rest and in transit. Unreadable without your keys.

Protect yourself

Your security habits matter too.

We handle the infrastructure. Here's how you can protect your account on your end.

Never share your password or OTP

Wasl will never ask for your password or one-time code. Anyone who does is a scammer.

Use a strong, unique password

Don't reuse passwords across services. Use a password manager like 1Password or Bitwarden.

Enable biometric login

Face ID and fingerprint login add a fast, secure layer that passwords alone can't match.

Watch for phishing

Check that emails come from @getwasl.com. Don't click links from unknown senders claiming to be Wasl.

Review transactions regularly

Check your transaction history weekly. Report anything unfamiliar immediately via support.

Keep your app updated

Security patches are pushed regularly. Always run the latest version of the Wasl app.
