Overview

Higlobe operates a subscription-based international payments platform that uses asset-backed stablecoins (1:1 backed by U.S. dollars or U.S. government treasury securities) to move funds quickly and with no per-transfer fees. The company offers a U.S. receiving bank account for a flat monthly fee (as low as $4.99), allowing multiple transfers per month under a single subscription. Higlobe is currently available in Mexico (free for a limited time to eligible users) and serves freelancers and small businesses working for U.S. companies; it plans to launch in Brazil later this year. The product targets workers who prefer to get paid in U.S. dollars and seeks to reduce hidden exchange rates and commission fees charged by competitors. Higlobe emphasizes using stablecoins issued by companies regulated or supervised by U.S. federal or state agencies to provide a speedy alternative to traditional cross-border payment rails.
