Payouts coverage

Airwallex currently supports local and SWIFT payouts over 200 countries/regions and over 90 currencies, and continues to expand its coverage. By connecting to local clearing systems in over 110 countries and regions, Airwallex offers local payouts which are faster and more cost-effective in comparison to SWIFT.

Please refer to Payout network for details.

FX coverage

Airwallex currently has the capability to transact in nearly 1,000 currency pairs across 64 currencies - a capability that is constantly improving. Some of the pairs are freely traded which means we are able to price and execute on both sides of the trade, whereas pairs that contain a currency with additional constraints are considered exotic currency pairs.

You can use supported currencies API to get a list of currencies you can buy or sell.

Buy and sell amounts are rounded to the nearest unit based on a currency's decimals defined by ISO 4217 .
