Shield Compliance Expands Direct Integration with BT Government

Financial institutions now have enhanced, one-click access to cannabis sales data, improving risk management and regulatory compliance.

SEATTLE, Oct. 30, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Shield Compliance, a market-leading compliance platform for cannabis banking, announced it has expanded its direct integration with BT Government's traceability system (formerly owned by BioTrack), used by states for tracking from seed-to-sale.

The integration with BT Government enables Shield's financial institution clients to seamlessly obtain valuable sales data from licensed cannabis operators with the following enhancements:

• Client authorization is provided by one-time sharing of the Unified Business Identifier (UBI), eliminating the need to create an API user.
• Nightly sales data for both wholesale and retail licenses.
• The ability for sales information to be provided and/or limited by a specific location for each license as necessary, providing more accurate deposit/trace sales validation.

"Financial institutions need accurate, timely, and verifiable sales data to confidently bank the cannabis industry," said Tony Repanich, President & CEO of Shield Compliance. "By expanding our integration with BT Government's traceability system, financial institutions can securely access critical sales information in Shield's compliance and analytics platform, reducing risk, streamlining compliance, and improving the overall efficiency of their programs."

"We are committed to helping the industry connect operational data with banking partners in the most secure and efficient way possible," said Moe Afaneh, General Manager of BT Government.
