Payment solution provider Flywire has purchased PACE Invoice, a UK-based multi-currency invoicing platform provider, for an undisclosed amount.
PACE enables businesses to issue invoices to their global customers that can be paid in ways that are convenient and familiar to them.
The deal allows Flywire to add international invoicing to its cross-border payments and receivables services. It will also allow its business, education and healthcare customers to easily link invoices to cross-border receivables.
The move follows Flywire’s recent expansion into the cross-border payment market for businesses.
As part of the transaction, PACE Invoice CEO James Shattock will join Flywire to lead the company’s expansion efforts in the UK and Europe.
The acquisition will also see Flywire providing its invoicing capability as an option with its cross-border payments and receivables platform.
