Global merchants and marketplaces have typically relied on international card acceptance to collect payments from Indian buyers. If you have been on either side of this equation you know this is extremely painful (its almost as painful as getting a root canal done - but I digress!!)
Xflow now enables seamless collection of payments from Indian buyers through local payment methods and then remitting these collections to global merchants wherever they are. This will eliminate unnecessary friction and unlock value for the local Indian buyers (consumer or businesses) and the global merchants. We are optimistic that this will grow this entire category of business and @xflowpay is proud to play our role in it! We launched this at Global Fintech Fest this year along with our partner @HSBC_IN
CNBC-TV18 has provided a great summary of this in this article:

Had a great conversation with @jivraj_sachar on the Indian Silicon Valley podcast. Thanks to the team!
One thing I'd tell my day-one self: don't assume customers know how much they're leaving on the table. Most don't. That changes everything.

I sincerely hope we see more kids pursuing sports!! I also hope there is an entire ecosystem of nutrition, physiotherapists, psychologists, doctors and more are available to enable this transformation!
"The ownership the team takes is something you don't see often."
^Something that came from one of users, Maha Iyer from PriceTime.
That's the bar. Not just competitive pricing or fast settlements, though PriceTime got both, with 70% lower FX costs.
But also the sense that someone actually cares whether your transfer goes right.

Vijay Amritraj has a 2-0 record over Rod Laver and a 5-6 record against Jimmy Connors!!! What a playa!! and what a post-(pro) tennis career too!!! 🫡
Everyone's asking whether stablecoins will replace traditional payment rails.
The more interesting question is whether they need to.
The consensus from the biggest players in cross-border payments like Deutsche Bank, Barclays, BVNK, & Ripple is the same: the future is hybrid.
Digital and fiat, side by side, with an orchestration layer that routes money intelligently between them.
Good read from @FXCintelligence capturing exactly this shift, from "stablecoins vs fiat" to "how do you orchestrate both."

I wonder if its time to allow tennis players to play with ear buds to cancel all the noise from the opponents grunting and screaming!!!
Pageloop builds AI for support teams. US customers, India entity.
But their payment process was everything it shouldn't be: hidden charges, no visibility upfront, compliance eating into founder time.
After Xflow: 50% lower FX costs. Full rate transparency. Compliance handled end-to-end.

SRA Law is a boutique Indian law firm & one of our prized customers. 70-75% of their clients are global.
That means cross-border payments aren't occasional. They're core to how the business runs.
Before Xflow, they were dealing with multiple issues with their provider.
Funds held for 17 days without explanation. FX spreads changing mid-cycle. Hours lost every month chasing banks.
After Xflow: 70% FX savings. Predictable settlements. 2-3 working days back every month.
