Corporate payments company Corpay (NYSE:CPAY) has announced that its Cross-Border business has introduced Multi-Currency Accounts, enabling ever-growing businesses to expand their global footprints while enjoying hassle-free and seamless foreign currency management, in one single point of access.

Corpay, which rebranded from Fleetcor last year, said that businesses often encounter challenges when navigating transactions in foreign currencies, while embarking on the exciting milestone of expanding into new markets and engaging with customers globally. The process of opening and managing foreign bank accounts can be complex, marked by layers of red tape, language barriers and rates and fees that are sometimes neither predictable nor transparent.

Corpay’s Multi-Currency Accounts are designed to address these obstacles by providing businesses with flexibility and transparency. With a straightforward onboarding process to become a Corpay customer and set up a Multi-Currency Account, business owners can effortlessly receive and pay out various foreign currencies through dedicated accounts in their own names. A unique account is assigned to each currency the account holder trades, simplifying the payments and receivables process and lowering the barriers to global trade for businesses, their customers and suppliers.

Corpay’s Multi-Currency Accounts program completed a pilot phase with current clients, and adjustments have been made based on their feedback. The official launch of Multi-Currency Accounts is commencing with 12 currencies, including many major traded currencies across the globe.

Tim Watson, Chief Product & Digital Innovation Officer, Corpay Cross-Border Solutions said,

“Our goal is to continuously develop solutions that transcend borders, allowing for seamless international operations,. After meticulous development that integrates our customers’ feedback and industry insights, our centralized account solution caters to the needs of businesses engaging in overseas markets across diverse jurisdictions and currencies. It streamlines account opening and management across multiple currencies and countries, simplifying complexity and allowing our customers to focus on their business first.”
