Technology & SaaS
FX Solutions

Tech companies operate globally from day one, remote teams, international contractors, and cross-border funding rounds. Aetas Global provides the currency infrastructure to pay your global team and manage treasury as you scale.

The Challenge

Currency risk in
technology.

Global Payroll

Paying remote teams across multiple countries every month at volatile rates creates unpredictable people costs and administrative burden.

Contractor Payments

Frequent, smaller-value international payments to a distributed contractor network are expensive and slow through traditional banking channels.

Funding Round Currencies

Managing investment proceeds and monthly burn rate across multiple currencies requires treasury expertise that early-stage companies rarely have in-house.

Case Study

SaaS Startup with Global Team

Client

A UK-headquartered SaaS company with 34 employees and contractors across the UK, Germany, the US, and India, following a £8M Series A round.

Challenge

Monthly payroll across EUR, USD, and INR was costing the company 3–5% in bank FX margins and transfer fees. Payments were frequently delayed by 3–5 days, and the finance team spent 2 days per month on international payment processing.

Our Approach

We set up automated recurring payments for all international payroll and contractor fees, with rates locked monthly in advance. A multi-currency treasury account allowed the company to hold funding proceeds in USD and EUR, converting to GBP only as needed.
