Financial technology company Plooto, a provider of electronic payment solutions for small and medium businesses, is now offering international payments for a flat fee of $9.99. Plooto users can also benefit from exchange rates much lower than banks’ advertised rates.
Plooto’s new solution is a replacement for international wire transfer services offered by banks, which charge transaction fees to both the business making the international payment as well as the business receiving it. These fees can add up to hundreds of dollars per transaction.
Plooto’s international payments solution is a secure platform built with military-grade security, and is trusted by more than 23,000 businesses in North America.
Plooto users can now bypass expensive wire fees and exchange rates offered by banks, saving them up to 90 percent on international payments. With the new launch, Plooto supports payments to the United States, the UK, China, India, Australia and European Union countries, with more countries to be added soon.
Sending a wire transfer through banks requires the account administrator to make a trip to their branch and fill out forms in person. Additionally, record keeping and reconciliation must be done manually, making traditional international wire transfers time-consuming and labor-intensive.
Furthermore, businesses lack visibility into the status of their payments because banks do not provide regular remittance updates. In total, making a single international transaction could cost hundreds of dollars and take days to process.
“International payments are inconvenient and expensive for all businesses, but Plooto is changing that” says Hamed Abbasi, founder and CEO of Plooto. “Plooto users can pay their vendors from the comfort of their own office, at a much lower cost, and with greater visibility, transparency and security. Plooto is helping businesses add to their bottom line and reclaim their time back.”
