CashAbroad enables global treasury operations for SMEs in industrial and logistics markets using stablecoin-based payment rails. Today, SMEs lose up to 6% in FX conversion costs and time delays due to inefficient financial systems. CashAbroad reduces this to ~1.5%, while enabling multi-account operations, faster expansion, and cross-border settlement in under two hours through local partners in eight countries. The company is initially focused on the $900B+ U.S.–Mexico trade payments market, one of the most active trade corridors in the world. By turning supply chains into programmable financial engines, CashAbroad unlocks efficiency that compounds into growth, sustainability, resilience, and shared economic abundance.
At Evolution, we’re excited by Cash Abroad’s bold reimagining of international money movement in an era where global commerce demands speed and simplicity. By leveraging digital wallet infrastructure, real-time currency conversion, and multi-currency accounts designed for international trade, they’ve built a platform that brings enterprise-grade FX capabilities to businesses that have long been underserved by traditional banks. Their tech-driven approach, real-time rates with transparent pricing, and suite of tools for cross-border payments and risk management position Cash Abroad as a refreshing alternative to legacy financial rails.
