Airwallex Testimony

“Airwallex provides us with flexibility and cost savings in dealing internationally. We used Airwallex to receive our recent global fundraising round and pay international suppliers and are saving at least 5% per dollar transferred versus the big banks.”

George van Dyck

Finance Manager, Zoomo

Airwallex Testimony

“Airwallex saves us $40,000 annually in collections costs from our sales on Amazon, which is the majority of our sales in the U.S. market. It also allows us to ‘repurpose’ our international currencies. For example, if we sell in Europe we can pay European suppliers in Euros as well. There’s no need to ‘double convert."

Edward Agaba
