Its REST API handles recipient onboarding with KYC/KYB, batch payments, invoice generation, and tax form collection, with SDKs for JavaScript, Python, Ruby, PHP, Java, and C#. Pricing starts at $1.00 per payout with a $2,399/year base fee on the Standard plan, and a 2% FX margin applies to currency conversions. The platform holds SOC 2 Type II and PCI DSS certifications, is GDPR compliant, and operates under money transmitter licenses across 24 US states as well as FCA, DNB, AUSTRAC, and FINTRAC registrations.
