@mamboitaliano__ Couldn’t agree more

Very excited about the agentic future we're building at Airwallex!

[Airwallex @airwallex]

Agentic commerce isn't coming, it's already here.

On June 25, we are bringing together the operators, builders, and infrastructure leaders shaping the future of AI-powered payments and commerce.

@scott_shannon, CPO of Airwallex, will open the evening, followed by a panel with speakers from @Visa, @Google, @AnthropicAI and @cursor_ai on what it takes to make agentic commerce work in the real world, from trust and orchestration to payments infrastructure at scale.

Request your invite for drinks, networking, and insights from the people building what's next 👉🏼 https://t.co/B1HaqrYZNv

I love ideas like this and based on how this thread is going we will soon see startups raising money to disrupt the aerial advertising space.
For the record: I have definitely seen and talked about this ad.

The Monaco Plane: Economics and Impact.

If you've been in SF over the last 10 days, you've likely seen the Monaco Plane flying around. I'm receiving countless messages asking about how expensive it is and if it's working.

So here are those answers:

@nikitabier Wait for the tweet from a new account complaining how he was unfairly suspended.

@flyinghigh165 @MissJilianne In the US you pay a fee to enter the National Park but then parking and shuttles are free. In Ireland it’s the reverse.

@marcorandazza It’s cheaper to process a card when it’s present vs when you typed it in online. Also, their chargeback risk goes down significantly if they use the physical card and take a picture of it along with your passport (proof that you gave it to them).

[Philipp Reichardt @re_phil]

@Maxime__Laroche @TheJerzWay That’s not the same. Canada taxes you on foreign income while you reside in Canada. But if you move to another country (and properly exit the Canadian system) you no longer have to file nor pay taxes in Canada.

@defyneric Our payroll clients are already doing that via Airwallex issuing. Plus, you can give your contractors a wallet where they can hold USD.

@AriEiberman @AviciMoney Came her to say this

[Philipp Reichardt @re_phil]

@brivael Des très bon points

[Philipp Reichardt @re_phil]

@Ntakibazo @hridoyreh The majority of the variable fee goes to Visa. In some countries the regulators put a cap on how much Visa can charge but in the US mostly not. Only way around that is not to use Visa.

[Philipp Reichardt @re_phil]

@hridoyreh Missing the FX markup, cross border fee, like for like settlement fee (whatever that is), refund fees, chargeback fees, and so many more

[Philipp Reichardt @re_phil]

@regulatorynerd Fascinating

[Philipp Reichardt @re_phil]

@dps @hbarra @alcor @dreamer @natfriedman Amazing! Congrats to all parties involved

@awxjack @airwallex @deel @McLarenF1 @boltapp No other bank or fintech matches Airwallex’s depth of product at a global scale.

[Philipp Reichardt @re_phil]

Airwallex is transforming how businesses manage their finances. Proud to be part of this journey and excited to share many more success stories in the next months.

[Jack Zhang @awxjack]

We saved our customers over $1.3 Billion in 2025 alone.
That value has helped @Airwallex reach $1.2 Billion in ARR, growing 85% YoY.

@Deel, @McLarenF1 , @boltapp and 200,000+ other customers trust us because legacy banking wasn't meant for global businesses:

• Opening a bank account in a new country takes weeks
• SWIFT transfers take 3-5 days
• Other platforms convert your money even when you don't want to

But with Airwallex you can:

1. Open an account and get paid like a local in 70 countries

Most platforms force you to convert your money into your currency and charge you a conversion fee to do it.

With Airwallex, your UK client pays you in GBP and it sits in your GBP balance.

Your Australian client pays in AUD and it sits in your AUD balance.

When you need to pay a UK vendor or run Australian payroll, you can simply pay from the same currency in your Airwallex account which leads to zero conversion fees.

2. Send and receive money on the same day

SWIFT takes 3–5 days and hits you with unpredictable fees on every transfer.

But over 90% of Airwallex transactions happen on the same day.

Since Airwallex uses local rails to move your money, it also happens at near-zero cost.

3. Issue multi-currency cards instantly

Airwallex helps you issue multi-currency cards to your employees across the entire world.

And every transaction is automatically synced to your accounting system in real-time.

4. Integrate Airwallex in your product

SaaS platforms and marketplaces can also use our APIs to offer these financial services to their customers.

In fact, many companies are doing it already.

But this is just a glimpse of what Airwallex can do. We’re building the all-in-one financial stack your company will ever need.

If you're doing $50M+ in revenue, you could save up to $500k in fees.

And that's money back into your business.

@DanteReminick Why does it have to be a stable coin in the middle if both sides of the transaction are FIAT? (Assuming by RTP rails you mean banking rails)

[Philipp Reichardt @re_phil]

@JonnieKing @helium_mobile From what I can tell, Helium is a great project with real traction but over the years handled a number of issues they faced (like any startup) very poorly, ultimately eroding trust and pushing people to exit out of frustration. Very unfortunate. Could have been a better story.

@tokeetapp can you please ask your AI agent ‘Elliott’ to stop calling me. I am not interested in doubling my rentals no matter how often he asks me the same question. Seriously, 10 times and counting.
