Ebury launches app to simplify global payments & FX for SMEs

Financial technology company Ebury has introduced a mobile application aimed at streamlining how businesses manage international payments and foreign exchange operations.

Mobile capabilities

The new app enables users to conduct a wide range of activities directly from their smartphone. Businesses using the platform can initiate and approve international payments, perform foreign exchange conversions, and track transactions. The app also allows access to real-time rates for over 130 currencies and displays current balances and transaction statuses.

The mobile application uses the same account authentication as Ebury's desktop platform, enabling users to switch devices and maintain secure access. The company has centred the app's development on improving convenience for clients who require flexibility in their financial operations.

International focus

Ebury supports clients in making and receiving cross-border payments, handling currency risk, and managing global cash flows. Its infrastructure facilitates payment and collection options across multiple markets. According to company figures, the group has expanded its presence to over 45 offices in more than 30 countries, with a workforce exceeding 1,800. Its clients operate in various regions, demanding consistent service levels for cross-border transactions.

The new app integrates with Ebury's broader services, including access to credit lines and dedicated support teams in local markets. This integration aims to reduce processing times for currency conversion and approvals, offering a single interface for managing transactions.

Business growth

Ebury reported steady expansion, citing growth in both revenue and client numbers. The company supports more than 21,000 clients and detailed rising revenues in its recent financial performance.

The organisation serves a range of small and medium-sized businesses that require cross-border capabilities and solutions for managing currency volatility. Ebury's shareholders include Banco Santander as a majority owner.

Client experience

The new mobile app has been developed following feedback from across the company's client base. Ebury aims to offer business owners the flexibility to manage their treasury operations without solely relying on desktop systems or fixed locations.

"Our clients are operating in an increasingly fast-moving and unpredictable global economy. They need the freedom to make payments, manage cash flow and monitor their finances on the go, and that's exactly what the Ebury app delivers. It combines the power of our online platform with the simplicity and speed of a mobile experience, helping business owners achieve their global growth objectives and move money smarter and faster than ever before," said Enrique Colin, Chief Product, Technology and Data Officer, Ebury.
