FAQ

What is a financial representative?

Typically this is the owner(s) of a for profit business. For non-profit organizations, this is typically a board member such as a president, secretary, treasurer, etc. who is responsible for or oversees the finances of the organization.

Why can’t a PO Box be used for the address?

We need a physical address to ensure the organization/business is located and performing business within the United States.

Why does the financial representative need to provide a full SSN and date of birth?

  • The financial representative needs to provide this information for a federal OFAC check. The Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) maintains watch lists for money laundering, fraud, and terrorist organizations; if the financial representative is on one of these lists, underwriting will fail and payments cannot be processed.
  • By providing this information for the financial representative, you are mitigating risk from potential fraudulent activity.
  • The purpose of these checks is to allow the US government to work with financial institutions to prevent identity theft, money laundering, the financing of terrorist organizations and activities, and other types of fraud.

     

Do you perform a credit check with the SSN?

No, it is only used for OFAC background checks.

Can personal information be safely provided and stored with JustiFi?

Yes, JustiFi is PCI-DSS and SOC 2 compliant. This means that we follow the highest standards per the payment card industry for keeping card data safe, and cybersecurity compliance to ensure all of your data is stored securely.
