Ospree and Monetari Launch Interoperable Travel Rule Infrastructure for Turkish CASPs

Istanbul  — February  2026

Starting February 2025, MASAK sets a clear mandate: every licensed crypto asset service provider in Türkiye must exchange sender and beneficiary data for every digital asset transfer. The regulation is clear. The infrastructure has not been, until now.

That gap is bridged.

Ospree and Monetari introduce a globally interoperable Travel Rule solution, built from the ground up for Türkiye and deployed entirely on local infrastructure.

Closing the Cross-Border Verification Gap

Most Travel Rule solutions in Türkiye are built for domestic transfers and operate effectively within local networks. However, high-volume digital asset flows move through global exchanges governed by FATF-aligned frameworks and cross-jurisdiction regulatory standards that extend beyond domestic architectures.

This creates a structural verification gap.

Ospree closes this gap by building replayability into every transfer, verifying counterparties beyond surface-level screening, and issuing regulatory-grade transfer attestations that serve as durable compliance evidence. Rather than simply routing Travel Rule data, Ospree operates as a verification infrastructure layer designed to ensure cross-border transfers are defensible under regulatory scrutiny.

Data Sovereignty Without Compromise

Interoperability cannot come at the expense of regulatory compliance.

Many global Travel Rule platforms rely on infrastructure outside Türkiye, creating exposure under Turkish data protection rules. When personal and transactional data leaves national borders, compliance risk increases, even if the technical integration appears secure.

Ospree’s architecture enables 100% deployment on local Turkish infrastructure, preserving data sovereignty while maintaining full global interoperability. This is not merely a technical feature, but a regulatory imperative for institutions seeking to operate with institutional credibility and embed within regulated financial ecosystems.

Regulatory-Grade Transfer Infrastructure

Through this partnership, Ospree delivers more than connectivity:

- Verified counterparty intelligence across jurisdictions

- Cross-protocol interoperability under global Travel Rule standards

- Hosted and unhosted wallet support

- Full alignment with MASAK and Turkish data protection requirements

- Transfer attestations built to withstand regulator scrutiny

- Replayable compliance logs for audit and supervisory review

By providing regulatory-grade transfer certification infrastructure, Ospree becomes more than a compliance tool. It operates as a verification layer embedded within regulated financial institutions, generating the compliance evidence required to scale digital asset operations with confidence.

Monetari is Ospree’s exclusive channel partner in Türkiye, driving local deployment, regulatory alignment, and seamless institutional integration.

“Turkish CASPs should not have to choose between global interoperability and local compliance,” said Javier Tamashiro, CEO of Ospree. “This partnership ensures both without compromise.”

“The market has been waiting for an infrastructure solution that respects Türkiye’s regulatory framework while connecting institutions globally,” said Karan Kayaturan, CEO at Monetari. “With Ospree’s platform deployed locally, we are closing the cross-border compliance gap for Turkish institutions.”

What This Means for Compliance Teams

For compliance teams facing MASAK enforcement:

One integration covers cross-border requirements and keeps all data sovereign.

Now, the Turkish market has access to a globally aligned Travel Rule infrastructure. Locally deployed, fully supported, and compliant from day one.
