What We Do

Conduit is a better way for global businesses to simply and cheaply move money and grow money with faster speed, better visibility and fewer steps than traditional payment rails.

Conduit gives global businesses an early-mover advantage to maximize new financial opportunities to make cross-border B2B payments and settle invoices simply and efficiently -- including to & from U.S. companies without requiring a U.S. entity or U.S. bank account.
