Veem is a digital payment processor that allows customers to send and receive domestic and international payments. Think of it as an alternative to traditional wire transfers, with some added features that will make the financial operations in your business easier.
Veem works well for any size business that collects payment primarily through invoicing. Although there are other solutions available to send payments for free, Veem goes one step further and allows businesses to accept both local (domestic) and cross-border (foreign) payments for free. You’ll be able to avoid bank inefficiencies and unnecessary fees for both you and your international customers.

How does Veem work?
Veem is a secure payment network that streamlines the wiring process not only to speed it up but also to cost you less.
Using multi-rail technology, Veem can process payments safely and securely through a digital ledger of transactions. This effectively eliminates the intermediary banks — and their corresponding fees — that are used in the traditional wiring process.
In addition to speeding up payments and making them less costly, Veem integrates with QuickBooks Online, Xero and NetSuite. This means your Veem payments and invoices will automatically load into your business’s accounting software.
Add in invoicing, unlimited accounts payable and accounts receivable management, sophisticated workflows, and 1099 tracking, and Veem is a full payments management solution for your business.

How much does Veem cost?
Whereas a traditional bank wire typically costs anywhere from $15 to $49, transfers made through Veem are mostly free. Veem is transparent about the few exceptions:
2.9% for credit card transactions. Veem was designed for electronic bank transfers. You do have an option to send payments via credit card, but a 2.9% transaction fee applies.
1% for instant deposit. Most payments made through Veem will land in your bank account within three business days. If you want your money instantly deposited to a debit card, you'll pay a 1% transaction fee. A $1.50 minimum fee applies.
$29 for international payments in USD. If you're paying someone outside of the United States who wants to receive their payment in U.S. dollars, you'll pay a fee of $29. However, if you and your payee both use Veem Wallet, this fee is waived. Your payee can then withdraw funds from their Veem Wallet to their bank account in their local currency at a competitive foreign transaction fee.
And that’s it. There are no subscription fees, usage fees or additional transaction fees even if you mail a check through Veem.

Benefits of Veem
Benefits of Veem for both payers and payees include:
Accounts payable and accounts receivable management. When your business uses Veem, you get access to customizable invoicing, payment links and the ability to make multiple payments all at once. You also get a dashboard to help you track payments made or received through Veem, even those that are still in transit.
Free payment availability. It bears repeating that Veem payments are almost entirely free. Just remember to avoid the $29 charge that Veem will apply to your international payments by asking the recipient to either accept payment in their local currency or use Veem Wallet.
Competitive foreign exchange rates. Veem offers stellar foreign exchange rates. If you’re invoicing an international customer or paying an international vendor, Veem will be able to convert your currency at some of the fairest rates around.
No additional hardware or complicated setup necessary. Veem is unique in that it won’t require your business to invest in any additional hardware in order to process payments. Other payment processing services might require your business to buy smart devices, card readers or countertop displays. Your business will simply need internet access to send and receive Veem payments. Also, the effort necessary to set up your Veem account is nominal; an account can be set up in under five minutes.

Drawbacks of Veem
There aren’t many drawbacks to using Veem, but there are a couple:
Veem isn’t 100% available in every country. Although Veem gives you the ability to complete transactions in over 80 currencies and to more than 110 countries, some countries are set up only to receive payments. Your customer might not be able to send you money through Veem.
Your customers pay more to pay you by credit card. Some customers prefer to pay using a credit card, but additional fees to pay that way can be a turnoff. Veem charges the payer 2.9% per transaction to pay by credit card, something you’ll want to keep in mind before sending a Veem payment link to your customers. Additionally, if you need a point-of-sale credit card processing system, you'll need to use a more traditional payment processor.
