Decision guide
What matters most before choosing in this category
Weighted on documented reach into other networks and the rule that routes a transfer (30), what an integrator receives when an exchange fails (28), what is published about proving a customer controls a self-hosted address (24), and where the personal data rests and how go-live is rehearsed (18).
Which institutions do your customers actually send to and receive from?
When the counterparty never answers, what does your integration receive?

Widest documented reach
The #1 overall and the scoring weights
CodeVASP (CODE)Data checked Sep 2026
Korean exchange-founded Travel Rule network whose English docs publish an eight-code denial vocabulary, a named beneficiary-timeout error, a self-hosted Docker cipher module and signature-proof unhosted-wallet checks on seven networks.
Korean exchange-founded Travel Rule network whose English docs publish an eight-code denial vocabulary, a named beneficiary-timeout error, a self-hosted Docker cipher module and signature-proof unhosted-wallet checks on seven networks. Strongest on documented protocol reach and routing (8/10): CodeVASP members exchange traffic with VerifyVASP, GTR and Sygna members through the same invocation, with required fields varying by the counterparty's solution; GTR and Sygna get their own field lists. VerifyVASP routes are domestic to South Korea, and no email path for a VASP outside every alliance is published. Published price: No price is published. www.codevasp.com/en/contact is a "Request a Demo" form ("Fill out the form below to learn how CodeVASP can help your business stay compliant."), not a price list; https://www.codevasp.com/en/pricing returns HTTP 404 and the site nav has…
Best forProtocol reach — 8/10
Main tradeoffTechnical integration does not buy reach: "Completing the API integration process with CodeVASP does not automatically enable transactions with all member VASPs.", each then running its own AML/CFT and readiness review (01-Integration-Process). Of the three solutions 12-Interoperability names, a note confines one to Korea: "Exchanges integrated with the VerifyVASP solution support only domestic transactions within South Korea, transactions with exchanges outside Korea are not possible." The counterparty list sits on a dashboard that "can only be joined by an invitation" (01-Dev-Environment-Setup), and the 63 English pages in the /en/docs navigation carry no price (read 4 September 2026).
Verify before signupNo price is published. www.codevasp.com/en/contact is a "Request a Demo" form ("Fill out the form below to learn how CodeVASP can help your business stay compliant."), not a price list; https://www.codevasp.com/en/pricing returns HTTP 404 and the site nav has no pricing entry; none of the 62 English pages in the docs.codevasp.com/en/docs navigation states a CodeVASP fee — their price and currency fields describe the transfer payload, not a charge (all read 30 September 2026).

Frequently asked
Questions people ask before choosing travel rule compliance
What happens to my users' data when the counterparty is on no network we share?
It gets a named state, or it gets a support ticket. The vendors that score here publish a machine-readable outcome for each way an exchange fails — silence past a timeout, a counterparty identified but unreachable, a destination that attributes to no institution — so your integration can act on it. The ones that do not leave you reconciling a stranded transfer by email.
What happens when a transfer cannot reach the counterparty?
Not as a logo wall. Reach is bilateral: a message completes only if the counterparty runs a protocol yours can reach, so what is scored is whether each transport has a page describing how that route works and what prerequisites it demands, plus the documented path for a counterparty outside every supported network.
What matters most when picking a Travel Rule vendor?
Reach and failure states, 58% of the weight between them. Reach decides whether the message completes at all, and the failure vocabulary decides whether your team learns that from an API or from a customer. Wallet control and data residency carry the rest.
