International Payments

A Low Cost Way for Businesses to send money abroad

best currency rates

JUNE 2021

Bottomline 2021 Business International Payments Barometer revealed this month that almost half of businesses across Great Britain find it difficult to pay suppliers on time. The report also highlighted this lack of confidence is felt most by small businesses (who are crucial to our economic growth )and 67% of businesses feel receiving and sending money quickly, has never been more important.

The Currency Club observed this gap in the marketplace. Business's foreign exchange and payments requirements were not being met fully and we decided it was a great opportunity for us to launch a platform tailored specifically for companies.

Our global international payments platform for business was launched at the start of 2021, in the midst of a pandemic and from our viewpoint, the timing could not have been better.

Whilst these Covid times have been extremely trying for everyone, many businesses have really struggled and been forced into survival mode. Revisiting operations, reviewing foreign exchange fees charged by third party providers and ensuring access to cash flow in uncertain times.

The Currency Club had already constructed a solid framework for international payments for individuals but we wanted to provide something more bespoke and sophisticated for business clients without losing the easy to use interface.

After several months in beta phase testing, we introduced a slick platform where businesses can easily log on, send money abroad with confidence and have the certainty of funds reaching suppliers and clients abroad in good time.

How are we different?

Unlike other Fintechs that simply offer smart technology, we combine first class technology with our wealth of foreign exchange experience to produce a bespoke currency management solution for every business client. Each of our business clients have direct lines to their dealers.

Appreciating that every business is unique and fully understanding their operations and the factors that impact their specific marketplace is crucial. For these reasons, we offer a consultative approach and we will only agree to work with you if our team feel they can add value to your bottom line.

For us, our client portfolio is about quality not quantity.

What services do we offer?

Liquidity at the best Exchange Rates

If you still happen to use your bank for foreign exchange, we can save significant sums on your foreign exchange fees. With our multiple lines of liquidity, we do our best to offer our business clients best in market exchange rates on the currency pairs you trade with us whilst providing complete transparency. We offer a free of charge trade audit on your historical trades to demonstrate potential savings we can make for you.

Global payments platform for instant pay-outs

For many businesses access to a 24/7 online portal may be sufficient and can meet their requirements perfectly. If a client already has a hedging policy in place that is working for them and simply wishes to execute spot or forward transactions, they can do so quickly and securely with email updates and system alerts for easy execution.

Implementation of a Risk Management strategy

For other businesses, they may require more guidance on how to manage various exposures that they may possibly be unaware of. Our role, is to understand the inner workings of the business and the environment it operates in.

For these clients, our team can devise a more sophisticated proposal to protect the bottom line. Access to the platform would be available for execution and equally, a dedicated dealer via telephone brokerage could be another option.

Mass payments

For those companies that have to make frequent multiple payments abroad to suppliers or employees, our platform offers a quick solution to do just that via one single file upload.

Our platform provides further in-built bank account verification and a second user double check functionality to avoid payment errors and increase payout efficiency.
