  2. 02

    Watch

    Every transaction goes through thresholds and aggregation.

    Validated XML, linked acknowledgment and the 17th deadline watched.

  5. 05

    Retain

The compliance officer's agenda

Every morning, what is due.

One view with everything that is due: 24-hour cases, transactions to report, pending screenings, the EBR review and the 17th.

    Screening against 7 sources (UN, OFAC, OFSI, FBI, SAT 69-B, Unlocated, and PEP) and 24-hour cases.

  • XML generation & zero-operation reports

    Pre-validation against official SAT XSD schemas and zero-activity reports.

  • Multi-activity coverage

    Rules and catalogs configured for Article 17 LFPIORPI vulnerable activities.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Frequently asked questions about AML compliance and the platform

8 questions answered for this section
Verified Information · PLDUnity / BDUnity
Does it work for my industry or vulnerable activity?

Yes. PLDUnity covers the vulnerable activities under Article 17 of Mexico’s LFPIORPI: gaming and betting, cards/vouchers, traveler’s checks, loans/credit, real estate, real estate development (Section V Bis), metals and jewelry, art, vehicles, armoring, cash-in-transit, professional services, public faith (notaries and brokers), donations, foreign trade, real estate leasing, and virtual assets. Note for Section XIV (Foreign Trade): the SAT does not receive these notices via XML on the SPPLD.

Do I have to replace my ERP, accounting software, or POS?

No. Keep running your existing ERP, DMS, or POS and feed PLDUnity in three ways: using the official activity-specific Excel template, uploading your system's native export so our AI maps the columns with your confirmation, or connecting in real time via our REST API and webhooks.

Is the platform ready for the LFPIORPI reform and the March & June 2027 deadlines?

Yes. PLDUnity already includes the Risk-Based Assessment (EBR) engine, client risk classification (low, medium, high, and foreign PEP), 25% Beneficial Owner tracking, and Compliance Manual generator required by March 1, 2027 (Agreement 115/2026), as well as the automated 6-month rolling accumulation monitoring, unusual transaction alerts, and 24-hour notices mandatory by June 1, 2027.

How do SAT XML validation and zero-activity reports work?

Before you download your file to submit it on the SAT SPPLD portal, PLDUnity validates the structure against your activity’s official XSD schema (or BDU can file it via its optional managed service). In months without reportable operations, you generate a zero-operation report and attach the SAT acknowledgment receipt.

Where is my data stored and how is the 10-year retention requirement met?

Your information lives on encrypted Google Cloud infrastructure with strict per-company isolation, SHA-256 cryptographic hashes on every document to prove integrity during regulatory inspections, immutable audit logs, and 10-year retention as mandated by amended Article 18. You can export your entire archive at any time.

How much does it cost and what is included in the 30-day free account?

We offer a Free account ($0 for 30 days, up to 20 notices/month, 1 user, zero-operation reports, basic alerts, and courtesy credits: 20 list queries and 5 identity verifications), Esencial ($4,900 MXN + VAT/month, up to 50 notices and 3 users), Profesional ($9,900 MXN + VAT/month, up to 250 notices, 10 users, EBR, and advanced alerts), and Corporativo (from $19,900 MXN + VAT/month, up to 1,000 notices, API, and integrations). List queries are purchased in prepaid packages from $350 to $10,000 + VAT ($2.00 to $3.50 per query), and identity verification costs $8 + VAT per person on your monthly statement or via prepaid packages from $375 to $25,000 + VAT ($5.00 to $7.50 per verification).

Can I manage multiple legal entities, branches, or advisory clients?

Yes. You can manage multiple tax IDs (RFCs) with strictly segregated files and audit trails, or coordinate multiple branches and cashiers within a single entity using role-based access control (compliance officer, analyst, cashier, and read-only external auditor).

How is PLDUnity related to BDUnity (BDU)?

PLDUnity is the RegTech platform operated by BDUnity (BDU). Beyond the software, you can separately contract BDU’s specialized professional services: Compliance manuals, AML/CFT training, Specialized EBR drafting and advisory, and Managed filing of notices before the SAT. The platform supports compliance operations and does not constitute legal advice.
