Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about Netaro's infrastructure, pricing, compliance, and support.
General & Onboarding
What is Netaro?
Netaro is an API-first cross-border settlement engine. We enable global enterprises, supply chain networks, and financial institutions to move fiat money globally with instant settlement, deep emerging-market liquidity, and embedded regulatory compliance. We completely bypass the SWIFT network, allowing you to settle cross-border B2B invoices in minutes, not days.
What are the key benefits of using Netaro?
The primary benefits include: unlocking trapped working capital by eliminating 3-5 day correspondent banking delays, cutting cross-border transaction costs by 60-90%, and removing the need to pre-fund foreign bank accounts. You get a programmable, natively compliant environment ready for modern automated treasury workflows.
How do you compare to traditional correspondent banks?
Traditional banking relies on a fragmented network of intermediary banks that trap capital and inflate costs via hidden FX spreads. Netaro replaces this broken chain. We use point-to-point, fiat-backed stablecoin rails purely as a backend clearing layer to settle transactions instantly. You get the speed of modern data networks with the strict compliance and reliability of traditional finance.
Who can use Netaro?
We operate strictly on a B2B model. Our primary clients are Global Enterprises, Pharma Cos, Supply Chain networks, and Manufacturers who require reliable, high-volume global settlement. We do not support retail consumer transactions.
What is your onboarding process like?
Our onboarding is rigorous but efficient, designed to get your treasury team transacting securely within 48 hours. After standard KYB (Know Your Business) and UBO verification, your engineering team is granted immediate access to our sandbox and production APIs.
Product & Features
Do I need to hold stablecoins or crypto on my balance sheet?
No. Your treasury never touches digital assets. Netaro utilizes programmable stablecoins (such as USDC) strictly as backend routing infrastructure to achieve instant settlement. You fund a regulated US virtual account in USD, and your global vendors receive local fiat directly into their standard corporate bank accounts. Your accounting and audit trails remain entirely in fiat.
What fiat currencies do you support?
We support major G20 fiat currencies (USD, EUR, GBP) and feature deep last-mile liquidity integrations across emerging markets in APAC, the Middle East, and Latin America. We partner with licensed local financial institutions to guarantee reliable fiat off-ramps directly to local bank accounts.
How fast are transactions settled?
Because we do not rely on legacy banking batch-processing, the majority of our cross-border transfers achieve true T+0 settlement — often finalizing in under 10 minutes. Furthermore, our infrastructure operates 24/7/365, meaning your supply chain never halts for weekends or bank holidays.
Is Netaro built for autonomous AI Agents?
Yes. Netaro allows developers to programmatically spin up secure, multi-currency virtual accounts with cryptographically enforced spending limits. This allows your AI agents to autonomously execute global machine-to-machine (M2M) micro-transactions while operating safely within your strict corporate budgets.
Can I integrate your API into my existing treasury systems?
Yes. Our architecture is designed to embed transparently into existing ERP, payroll, and treasury management workflows. We offer a robust suite of RESTful APIs, webhooks, and a web-based dashboard for your finance team.
Pricing & Fees
What is your pricing model?
We operate on an institutional "market + bps" model. We charge a razor-thin, transparent spread on real mid-market FX rates: typically 3–10 bps (0.03%–0.10%) for G20 currencies and 10–40 bps for emerging markets. This is significantly lower than legacy banks, which routinely hide 300–500+ bps in arbitrary markups.
Do you offer incentives for high-volume enterprises?
Yes. We provide bespoke pricing programs for enterprises processing over $100M in monthly volume. These include further reduced execution spreads, dedicated liquidity pools for specific emerging market corridors, and waived API subscription fees.
Security & Compliance
Is Netaro regulated and secure?
Absolutely. Compliance is our primary operational moat. Netaro is registered with US FinCEN as a Money Services Business (MSB). We facilitate global settlement by partnering exclusively with fully licensed US Sponsor Banks, Tier-1 institutional custodians, and regulated local payout partners.
How do you handle AML and KYC?
Our API features embedded compliance modules that automate regional KYC/KYB and perform real-time Anti-Money Laundering (AML) screening. We utilize advanced transaction monitoring to flag anomalies, detect fraud, and prevent any interactions with sanctioned entities.
How do you protect client funds?
We mitigate risk by strictly utilizing fully reserved, fiat-backed digital assets audited by top-tier global accounting firms for our backend routing. We ensure that every dollar moving through our system is backed 1:1 by real fiat reserves held in regulated financial institutions.
Support & Relationship Management
What level of support can we expect?
High-volume clients are assigned a dedicated Relationship Manager and a Compliance Liaison. We provide proactive account monitoring, regular strategic business reviews, and localized expertise to help you navigate complex emerging market payment corridors.
Do you provide SLA guarantees?
Yes. Because our backend settlement architecture operates 24/7/365 without observing bank holidays or weekend closures, we are able to provide robust Service Level Agreements (SLAs) regarding API uptime and settlement speeds that traditional financial institutions simply cannot match.
