First AML pricing in Australia: quote-only, and the published minimum

First AML here is the customer-onboarding business at firstaml.com. This page is about anti-money laundering pricing, not a medical search. It is also not the FreeAML product.

What the public page actually shows

Checked on 2 October 2026, First AML plans and pricing (Australia) says prices vary by jurisdiction. The commercial facts a small firm can read without a sales conversation are the plan names, the Launch minimum, and that the displayed price is POA.

There is no public individual-check price and no public entity-check price on that page. Anything else — implementation, screening add-ons, contract length — is a quote. Do not treat a review site or a blog estimate as First AML’s list price.

What the minimum means for a small firm

“Minimum 400 individuals or 100 complex entities a year” is a volume floor, not a discount. A sole practitioner, a suburban agency, or a three-partner firm that might verify forty people and a handful of companies in a year is under the Launch description before price is even discussed. The page frames Launch as the entry option. If your year is lumpy — a quiet quarter, then a burst of matters — a floor sized for hundreds of onboardings is the wrong shape even when the dollar is still POA.

• Count people and entities you will actually onboard, not staff seats.
• Ask the quote what happens in a year you miss the minimum.
• Ask whether complex-entity counts include every related party or only the customer.
• Keep the quote next to your own matter forecast. A POA number without the floor is incomplete.

FreeAML on the same question

FreeAML is built without that volume floor. The firm suite is A$0. Verification is client-pays: the customer gets an email link and pays for their own check. The firm’s cash cost is A$0 when the customer pays. Current prices are on FreeAML pricing. There is no published minimum number of individuals or entities per year.

Obligations do not change with the vendor. Tranche 2 is the same whether you buy a quote-led platform or send a client-pays check.

When First AML is still the right conversation

• You already onboard at or above the Launch minimum and you want one vendor across offices.
• Procurement wants a multi-country platform consolidation. That is the Transform description, not a small-firm rate card.
• Your program needs services this page does not price in public. Get them in the quote and compare the whole contract, not a rumour of a unit price.

This page versus the alternative guide

Fit, procurement weight, and whether an enterprise onboarding suite matches a small firm are covered in First AML alternative for Australian small businesses. This page stays on the public price: quote-only, and a published minimum. Use both. Do not treat either as a substitute for the quote First AML will actually send.
