The company is useful for making international transfers and receiving cross-border payments at a lower cost than using a bank.
Those looking for multi-currency cards or expense tracking and management should opt for a provider like Wise Business, Airwallex, or Revolut.

Features | Insight |
---|---|
Bulk payments | Payset is to release an updated version of the bulk payments system (not batch payments). With bulk payments, you can make multiple payments to anyone with a single transaction with all details uploaded through a CSV. |
Pay invoices | Possible to pay invoices and track payments within Payset at a lower rate than doing so through a bank |
Receive Payments | Payments can be received but are subject to a fee of 0.75%, or £12 as a minimum. This is not the case with most providers |
Marketplace integration | Payments can be withdrawn from marketplaces by adding as an account, but no apps or integrations within Payset itself |
Fees
Payset fees are relatively high bearing in mind they largely just offer cross-border transfers.
A monthly fee starting at £49 vs no monthly fee with Sokin or TorFX, which both have increased features, puts them at a disadvantage in the market.
