01 / The real rate

Watch the fee. That's the whole pitch.

Most providers hide their cut inside a worse exchange rate, so you never see what you actually paid. Tessera shows you the mid-market rate and our fee, separately, before you send a single cent. Move the number.

02 / Routes

Your money already knows the way home.

We hold real balances in local banking rails on both ends, so a transfer is mostly a quiet handoff — not a wire crawling through three intermediaries. Most corridors land before your coffee gets cold.

03 / The account

One account that speaks every currency.

Local details in dozens of countries, a card that pays in whatever you're holding, and tools that treat a freelancer in Manila exactly like a finance team in Munich.

Hold 47 currencies at once

Keep balances in euros, yen, naira, rupees — switch between them at the real rate the instant you choose to, never a day before.

$0.00

to open, to hold, to receive in a local currency. We only ever charge the one fee you saw on the screen. Monthly minimums are a thing other banks invented.

A card that just spends what you hold

Tap in Tokyo, it spends your yen. No surprise conversion at the till.

Most transfers land in seconds

Real local rails on both ends mean no three-day wire limbo.

Built for the people money usually forgets

A nurse wiring home, a studio paying contractors across six time zones, a parent covering tuition abroad — all on the same honest rate, in the same plain numbers.

Your money, safeguarded

Customer funds held with regulated partners, kept apart from ours.
