Multi-currency balances

Hold and allocate multi-currency balances with clearer context.

Businesses receiving and paying internationally need to know what funds are available, in which currency, for which purpose, and what happens next—hold, convert, allocate, or pay a supplier.

Built for businesses with £1M+ equivalent annual FX exposure and recurring international supplier, customer, or treasury payment flows.

Multi-currency allocation flow

  1. 1Funds receivedIncoming funds are identified by currency, payer, and reference where available.
  2. 2Balance attributedFunds are attributed to the correct commercial event or account context.
  3. 3Purpose reviewedFinance decides whether to hold, convert, allocate internally, or prepare pay-out.
  4. 4Action preparedFX or supplier payment is prepared with the required references and approvals.
  5. 5Record keptBalances, references, and onward actions remain clearer for reconciliation.

Balances are operational only when finance can explain what they are for.

Why this capability matters

Currency separation

Mixed-currency operations need clearer attribution before pay-out.

Allocation decisions

Incoming funds may need to fund suppliers, FX, or internal treasury moves.

Reconciliation

Finance teams need balances tied to invoices, customers, and payment purpose.

Route context

Availability and movement depend on currency, jurisdiction, and provider arrangement.

How it fits the payment workflow
