Our take

Currencycloud was founded in order to simplify international payments and collections. Its cloud-based system removes the hassle, allowing businesses to focus on the customer without building complex payment infrastructures. With its conversion system, businesses can access real-time and wholesale FX rates, thereby eliminating risk while automating the end-to-end payment process.

Currencycloud was built by developers for developers, utilising superior technology, including extensive developer tools, RESTful APIs for seamless integration, and modular solutions. Its customer-oriented approach is highly flexible; giving users the option to handle compliance on their behalf, and working with both regulated and unregulated businesses.

Fully authorised and regulated in the EU, UK, US, Canada, and Australia, Currencycloud finds itself used by millions across the world, with clients including major banks, fintechs and financial institutions. Its acquisition by Visa in 2021 has contributed to its success, as has the long list of partnerships and collaborations the company has been a part of. Now cemented in the market, it can only be expected that Currency cloud will continue towards further success in the future.
