Use case

HexaBrain receives payments from clients across multiple countries for the software services it delivers, and needed a reliable way to bring those funds into its India entity without adding friction to the process. With clients paying primarily via international wire transfer, the team needed a channel that offered dependable execution, transparent pricing, and rates it could track and plan around.

Use case

Problem summary

Before Xflow, HexaBrain settled most of its international collections through bank wire transfers. Costs varied significantly by country and weren't always predictable in advance, and on larger invoices, this added up to a meaningful amount. There was also no way to see the final rate before a transfer was initiated, which meant the team was often piecing things together from statements after the transaction rather than planning ahead of time.

As HexaBrain's client base grew across new geographies, the team began evaluating other cross-border payment providers to see whether a more consistent, transparent alternative existed.

Why Xflow

Xflow gave HexaBrain a straightforward channel for its international collections, letting the team bring USD invoices into its India entity without changing how clients preferred to pay. Documentation and compliance were built into the process, removing the need to track paperwork separately. The team also valued Xflow's responsiveness and proactive support.

Xflow's predictive FX analyst tool added another layer of control. During periods of currency movement, HexaBrain could lock in a preferred USD-INR rate, leading to better FX savings. This also gave their finance team more room to plan around larger invoices instead of reacting to the market day by day.
That combination, a tool built for planning ahead and a team that showed up consistently, is what led HexaBrain to steadily shift a growing share of its international collections onto Xflow.

Results

Since adopting Xflow, HexaBrain has cut its FX costs by around 40% compared to what it was paying through banks and other providers on its international collections. HexaBrain also now has full visibility into every transfer, with real-time tracking and accessible documentation available directly on the platform. Combined with faster, more predictable settlement, Xflow has replaced what was previously a more fragmented process into one that's standardized and easy for their finance team to plan around.
