- What is Plaitr?
+
- Plaitr handles global money movement for businesses outside the US. You can receive money, hold USD, EUR, GBP and AED, pay vendors and teams across countries, and keep the records connected. The customer asks for the result; Plaitr handles the rails underneath.
- How is Plaitr different from Ramp?
+
- Ramp built a strong financial product for US businesses. Plaitr is focused on the harder global money movement problem: businesses outside the US receiving and sending money across countries and currencies. We start with accounts and payouts, then build more of the financial infrastructure underneath.
- Who is Plaitr for?
+
- Businesses that receive or send money across countries and do not want to stitch together banks, payment providers and spreadsheets. This includes software companies, agencies, exporters, logistics companies and other cross-border businesses.
- We are incorporated in the US. Is Plaitr for us?
+
- If your business mostly moves money inside the US, Plaitr is probably not the product you need. If your US entity receives or sends money across countries, especially across multiple currencies, that is where Plaitr is built to help.
- What is live today?
+
- Live today: USD, EUR, GBP and AED accounts, inbound SWIFT, global payouts, USDC on Solana in both directions, payroll and bulk payouts, approvals and roles, and automatic reconciliation. Cards, treasury and credit are not live yet. Invoicing, payment links and Stripe sync are coming soon.
- How do stablecoins fit in?
+
- Stablecoins are just another rail underneath Plaitr. USDC on Solana runs in both directions, so you can be paid in it or pay in it. Your team does not need to manage wallets or understand the chain. You ask Plaitr to make the payment and we handle the route.
- Is Plaitr a bank?
+
- No. Plaitr is a financial technology company. Account opening and fiat rails are provided by licensed partner institutions. On-chain balances are held in the customer's own self-custodial Squads smart account. Plaitr does not hold deposits or private keys.
- How does the accounting work?
+
- The records follow the money. Transactions moving through Plaitr are matched and reconciled as they settle, so your finance team does not have to rebuild the payment history later. Records can be exported to Xero, QuickBooks, NetSuite and CSV.
