Getting Started With TRISA Envoy

The only open source, secure & P2P travel rule messaging solution under active development.

Last updated: March 1, 2025

Welcome to TRISA EnvoyEnvoy User Interface

Envoy is TRISA’s open source, encrypted, and P2P messaging solution for travel rule compliance. Designed to protect PII and comply with local regulations, Envoy helps compliance teams securely exchange originator and beneficiary information (in IVMS101 standard) for cross-border digital asset exchanges using the TRISA and TRP protocols. Envoy includes a sunrise messaging feature to contact counterparties that don’t use TRISA or TRP. Envoy is secure, accessible, and flexible.

Consider Envoy as your dedicated “telephone” for encrypted travel rule data exchanges. Your Envoy service consists of endpoints (server addresses) that act like “telephone numbers” that you can use to “call” verified counterparties to exchange data. If a counterparty is out-of-network and does not use TRISA or TRP, then you can use Envoy’s sunrise messaging feature to initiate a travel rule data exchange.

Product Update: TRISA Envoy Expands Global Reach with Sunrise Messaging

TRISA Envoy now enables seamless global Travel Rule compliance with its new Sunrise Messaging feature. This update allows users to initiate Travel Rule messages via email, connecting with any counterparty worldwide, both in-network (TRISA & TRP) and out-of-network (other protocols). By eliminating interoperability barriers, Envoy significantly expands network coverage and streamlines compliance for VASPs. Available now to all users.

Step 1: Decide How to Your Organization Will Implement Envoy

Envoy it designed to be flexible and accessible. VASPs have three implementation options:

Option >> 1. Self-host/ DIY 2. Assisted Implementation 3. Hosted Service
Description Envoy is open source (MIT License). Download, Helm install, integrate, host and support your own Envoy node and service. Rotational will install and configure your node for your environment while you host, maintain, and support the node on an ongoing basis. Rotational will install, configure, host, maintain, and support your Envoy service. Includes dedicated, provenance-aware server with regional deployments and redundant data backups.
Best for Operators that want maximum flexibility and control to customize and have the technical resources to integrate with their systems Operators seeking a balance between cost & convenience, with professional implementation ensuring a robust setup without the ongoing costs of managed services. Compliance teams seeking a turnkey solution with minimal effort while leveraging expert support & maintenance for sustained regulatory adherence.
Time to Implement 2-3 months 2-3 weeks 1-2 days
Cost USD $0.00 USD $2,500 (one-time) USD $375.00/ month/ node (6-month min commitment)

Step 2:  Join TRISA’s Global Directory Service (GDS)

The Global Directory Service (GDS) is a network of trusted VASPs and members. Any market participant with a legitimate business purpose can join TRISA. Most operators start by registering for Testnet x.509 identity certificates at no cost. It takes 1 business day to complete the validation process. Once verified and ready to move to production, operators can submit to join TRISA’s Mainnet, also at no cost. Note: If you opt for the hosted service, Rotational will provide your endpoints.

Depending on the implementation option and GDS registration, Envoy can take as little as 1-2 business days to implement with the hosted service or 2-3 months with the open source implementation.
