Compare all 28 reviewed Australian AML compliance providers

Self-serve (A$129–A$650/mo) means you run AML on the software — your team does CDD, screening, and reporting using the platform's tools. Mid-market (A$700–A$2,000/mo) adds multi-entity, configurable rules, and a reviewer/approver layer for firms with a dedicated compliance lead. Managed (A$650–A$2,500/mo) adds an outsourced AML officer doing the work for you — you upload the customer, they run CDD and draft any SMRs. The price overlap between self-serve and managed is real: a small firm might pay more for a managed lite service than a mid-market platform with no service layer.

Elapsed calendar time from signed contract to first live customer onboarded through the platform — not implementation hours. Self-serve products average 1–2 weeks because most setup is configuration. Mid-market deployments are 3–5 weeks (configurable rules, integrations, training). Managed services are 4–6 weeks because the provider has to learn your business before they can run it. Add 2–3 weeks for legal-sector firms with trust account integration.

Sector specialists (AML Manager, Lawmaster) build deep workflow for one sector — typically with practice-management integration that generalist platforms can't match. Multi-sector platforms (AMLHUB, Complispace, AML SmartGuard) trade depth for breadth, which matters if you operate across legal + real estate or accounting + bookkeeping. Multi-sector firms almost always need a multi-sector platform; single-sector firms often get more value from a specialist.

CDD included means the monthly fee covers a defined volume of customer due diligence checks (ID verification, sanctions/PEP screening, beneficial ownership lookup) without per-check charges. Add-on means CDD runs through the platform but is billed per check on top of subscription. No means you provide your own CDD provider and feed results into the program. For SMEs onboarding 5–30 customers/month, included is usually cheapest; above that, negotiate a volume rate; below, pay-per-check tools win.

Pricing and feature data is refreshed quarterly against published rate cards and direct provider confirmation. Major changes — new pricing tiers, sector additions, ownership changes — trigger an out-of-cycle update. The 'last reviewed' date at the top of the table reflects the most recent verification. We don't republish silently: material changes are noted in the changelog at the bottom of provider profile pages.

In each service category and sector, one provider can be our Founding Partner. They pay us for introductions, so they're highlighted and labelled in your results, and they're the only provider in that category we pass your details to, and only if you ask. Every other matching provider is still shown, ranked by fit, with their direct contact details.
