Instant Business PaymentsIn a fast global business world, you can’t wait days and days for payments to be processed. You need instant payments now – so the goods can be shipped, service provided, or so investment funds arrive. Usual payment methods such as cheques, wire transfers and drafts are just not good enough. Only with a Technocash Business Account can you make INSTANT, secure payments to other Technocash Business Accounts. No longer do you have to wait for the bank to be open. No longer do you have to worry about bank hours, banks closing on the weekends, bank and public holidays. You can make instant business payments 24/7 – to other Business Accounts anywhere in the world. Full reference information of all Instant Business Account payments is a feature – you and the recipient know what the payment was for.
Better than Wire TransfersWire transfers have been useful, but not for the 21st century. You deserve better.
Real Time Trading and PaymentsReal Time Trading and Payments are now here. No bank cut-off times or bank holidays for business transactions. Our Business Account transaction network operates 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Avoid holidays in different countries, which slow down trading activity. No time zone issues at all.
Multi-Currency AccountIn the global economy, payments are made in many different currencies. You gain access to these – all through your one Technocash Business Account. Your Business Account is truly multi-currency. You can receive and hold many currencies including USD, EUR, GBP, HKD, YEN, AUD, CAD, etc. You don’t have to pay separate monthly fees for each currency – saving you thousands of dollars!
Also Wire PaymentsIn the event the business you are paying does not have a Technocash Business Account, you still can pay them by wire transfer directly from your Technocash Business Account. Encouraging more businesses to join the Technocash Business Account network will, however, allow instantaneous transactions – avoiding delays inherent with traditional wire transfers and the banking system. Cleared Funds· All payments are in cleared funds – payment delays no longer get in the way of your trading activity. Identified Recipients
