Airwallex is a multi-currency business account that covers much of the FX and cross-border payment work a small treasury function handles. Companies can open local currency accounts to receive funds in 20+ currencies, send transfers to 200+ countries in 60+ currencies, and convert at interbank rates, with scheduled conversions to lock in rates. Balances across entities and accounts appear in one view, and dedicated accounts separate operating cash, reserves and yield funds. Domestic USD transfers are free, while SWIFT transfers cost $15 to $25 each. The Explore plan is $0 per user per month; Grow is $12 per user per month plus a platform fee and lists yield on USD balances. Transactions sync with Xero and QuickBooks. Airwallex holds the money itself, so it does not aggregate balances from other banks or produce bank files for a corporate ERP. It suits companies whose main treasury problem is currency, not bank count.
