# What is an Account at Ospree?

In Ospree, an account represents an individual or legal entity involved in a crypto transaction, maintained for compliance and regulatory purposes under the Travel Rule framework.

Ospree supports two types of accounts:

* **Customer Account:** A client onboarded by your organization.
* **Non-Customer Account:** An external individual or entity.

Each account stores the essential details required for compliance ensuring accurate and complete data exchange during a travel rule transfer.\
\
Accounts are used to associate wallet addresses, standardize required data, and reduce the risk of rejected or delayed transactions due to missing compliance information. They can be created and managed via the Ospree API or Console.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.ospree.io/quick-start/intro-to-ospree/what-is-an-account-at-ospree.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
