With low volatility, fast transactions, and global reach, they make it easy to receive payments without location restrictions.

Making payments easier for everyone

Despite the rise of digital banking and solutions, about 1.7 billion people globally are still unbanked, especially in developing countries.

However, Grey is set to change this by collaborating with dLocal. Grey users in Brazil, Mexico, Indonesia, South Africa, and the Philippines will be able to send and receive payments instantly into their wallets and bank accounts at low cost. This will not only make cross-border transactions easier but also affordable.
