ThetaRay and Spayce bring cognitive AI to bare on financial crime compliance

ThetaRay, a global leader in Cognitive AI financial crime compliance, and Spayce, a cross-border payments platform, today announced a strategic partnership to combat evolving financial threats and enhance global payment security. 0 The collaboration will be officially unveiled at Money 20/20. The announcement comes at a time when the financial crime landscape is undergoing a dramatic transformation. As criminal networks grow more sophisticated and agile, operating with the complexity of multinational corporations, traditional rule-based anti-money laundering (AML) systems are increasingly outpaced. These outdated tools often miss hidden threats, allowing illicit activity to slip through undetected and exposing institutions to regulatory, financial, and reputational risk. Spayce has deployed ThetaRay's Cognitive AI Transaction Monitoring solution into its global payments infrastructure to enhance its financial crime detection capabilities. ThetaRay's solution uses Cognitive AI to continuously analyze the vast volumes of transaction data, detecting nuanced suspicious activity, and uncovering complex financial crime schemes with exceptional accuracy. This AI-first approach not only strengthens compliance but empowers Spayce to scale securely, turning regulatory readiness into a foundation for sustainable growth. Spayce, which serves clients ranging from SMBs to large financial institutions in over 200 countries, now gains deeper visibility into transaction flows without compromising speed or customer experience. The result is a smarter, faster, and more secure global payments ecosystem, one where compliance no longer slows expansion, but actively enables it. 'Financial crime is evolving rapidly, and the technology used to combat it must evolve even faster,' said Peter Reynolds, CEO of ThetaRay. 'Our partnership with Spayce unites robust payment infrastructure with ThetaRay's Cognitive AI to deliver proactive risk mitigation, greater transparency, and the trusted cross-border transactions needed to power global growth.' 'As Spayce expands its global payments capabilities, security and AML compliance remain at the core of our mission,' said Debra LePage, Partner & Co-Founder of Spayce. 'Partnering with ThetaRay empowers us to stay ahead of increasingly sophisticated financial threats, while continuing to deliver seamless, trusted payment experiences for our customers worldwide.'
