How can we execute larger international trade payments?
Share the transaction with Trend Digital’s OTC desk: the currencies, the amount, the recipient and the supporting documents. The desk confirms a quote, the required checks and settlement instructions. Once funding arrives, Trend executes the conversion across supported fiat currencies or stablecoins such as USDT, and coordinates settlement to the verified recipient. You work with one team from quote to settlement, with a record of each transaction.
Larger payments, handled by one desk.

Your questions. Clear answers.
Everything you need to know about moving money with Trend Digital, from global accounts and international payments to digital assets, settlement and integration.
How large a transaction can the desk handle?
A network of liquidity providers supports the size and currency requirements of your transaction. Share the amount, currencies and timing, and the desk confirms a tailored quote.
Can we pay a supplier in USDT from a fiat balance?
Yes, where that funding and delivery route is enabled for your business. The desk confirms the checks and settlement instructions for the documented transaction.
Do you provide trade finance?
No. Trend provides OTC execution, currency conversion and payments. It does not provide trade finance or physical cash services.
Will the exchange rate stay the same?
Market exchange rates fluctuate. Your quote follows its stated validity period; your agreed fee schedule determines Trend's charges.
How quickly will the supplier receive the funds?
Timing depends on the currency, route, banking calendar and required checks. We confirm the expected timing for your transaction.
How are fees calculated?
Trend charges no setup or integration fees. Your agreed fee schedule stays fixed, and transaction and conversion costs are explained before you proceed. Market exchange rates can change.
