What local businesses are saying about Airwallex
“We have contractors based in China, the US, and Europe, and our Airwallex Global Account enables us to make global payments from one simple portal. Having Airwallex as our global trusted partner means we can spend less time on the phone to the bank, and more time instead focusing on growing our business both domestically and internationally.”
Richard Li
Co-founder & CEO, July
“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
“Businesses have systems to manage their inventory, we see Airwallex as the system to manage their money. Airwallex is now part of our strategy to optimise our clients’ global purchasing and payments. It is something that any modern agency will naturally be recommending as part of the usual technology stack.”
Nigel Poole
Director, Matter Design & Digital
“We couldn’t just look at the cost of the product, but also the cost of selling that product. We needed to factor in things like digital marketing spend, merchant fees and currency conversion fees on each sale. With Airwallex, we’ve saved over $12,000 each month that I re-invest into the business for the long-run.”
Hayley Worley
Founder, The Sheet Society
"Airwallex solves the problem of creating currency accounts almost instantly. I can click one button to create a UK account. We haven’t looked back since day one."
Peter Park
Business Improvement Manager, Deliciou
“Airwallex is what the new face of managing finances should really look like. First thing I did when I walked into Mr Yum was move all our subscriptions off a big 4 debit card and onto Airwallex. I reckon it saved us close to $50,000 this year in our FX fees.”
Corey Payne
Financial Controller, Mr Yum
“Airwallex is our one-stop shop for all our banking needs, in one easy-to-use interface. Without Airwallex, we would not have been able to scale our business as fast as what we’ve been able to achieve.”
Andrew Ford and Rosa-Clare Willis
Co-founders, Crockd
“Coconut Bowls very quickly attracted global attention and we began making sales in USD, GBP and Euro. Before Airwallex, we were making unnecessarily expensive conversions. Our margins have easily increased by 3% simply by switching to Airwallex.”
Jake McKeon
Founder, Coconut Bowls
“The most important part for business expanding internationally comes down to localisation. People don’t want to buy out of an Australian warehouse, they want to be buying from a local warehouse. They don’t want to be paying to an unfamiliar bank account with high fees, they want to be paying like a local.”
Rex Kuo
Co-Founder, Orbitkey
“Airwallex is so easy to use. It’s allowed my team to self-serve which suits our growing business and teams. Whether it’s getting payment approvals, or giving a virtual card for a new employee – it gives us the visibility and control we need.”
Tristan Cheal
Financial Controller, Clipchamp
