The cooperation between Pipe and Airwallex will accelerate the international expansion of these global platforms and bring same-day and next-day payouts to small businesses in new markets.
Airwallex, a fintech platform for growing businesses, has partnered with Pipe, a company focusing on embedded capital products for small businesses, to power rapid global growth.
Pipe is a fintech platform that helps businesses convert predictable, recurring revenue (such as subscriptions, retained services, or repeat payments) into up-front working capital. Instead of selling equity or taking traditional bank debt, businesses can monetize future revenue streams today and get cash to run or grow the business.
Using a single, scalable Airwallex integration, Pipe can reach new markets faster, while local SMBs in need of working capital access same-day or next-day payouts through trusted platforms. Airwallex’s API-first platform lets Pipe deploy funds rapidly into new markets by connecting to the fastest local payment rails and cutting down on day-to-day operational work.
“With its broad global coverage and deep product capabilities, Airwallex gave us the support to launch in our first international market in weeks, not months. That speed and scale are critical for us as we look to expand our global footprint,” commented Luke Voiles, CEO at Pipe.
Airwallex platform combines its own backend infrastructure with software and AI to simplify how companies manage accounts, get capital, control spending, and add embedded financial services. Built to replace slow, fragmented legacy systems, Airwallex provides a single, global toolkit with features ranging from multi-currency business accounts and payments to spend management and embedded finance features.
Airwallex supported Pipe’s entry into the UK in late 2024 and into Canada in early 2025. Pipe intends to use Airwallex to launch in Australia later in 2025 and expand into additional countries in 2026.
Both companies will keep exploring ways to deepen their collaboration and broaden their presence across Europe and APAC in 2026 and beyond.
