Case Study: Wayo streamlines global payments and checkout with Airwallex

Wayo transforms checkout and cross-border payments with Airwallex

Wayo, a New York-based merchandise company founded in 2022, uses AI and advanced design tools to help businesses source custom products globally. As it scaled, Wayo struggled with expensive, cumbersome cross-border payments and high fees on large B2B orders, especially with its previous invoicing setup and 3% card processing costs. To address these issues, Wayo turned to Airwallex, using Global Accounts, Payments, and Issuing.

With Airwallex, Wayo streamlined FX payments, reduced blocked transactions, and simplified checkout through Payment Links, a complete embedded checkout experience, QuickBooks integration, and API-based automation. Airwallex helped Wayo cut transaction and FX costs, reduce manual reconciliation, and improve operational efficiency; the company specifically noted significant savings on high-value orders and fewer payment processing hurdles, enabling faster self-serve ordering for customers.
