International trade shouldn’t depend on where your bank is.
A Surinamese importer needs to pay a European supplier in euros. Local bank routes add FX costs and processing delays, and account requirements limit access to international platforms.

About Trase.
Trase is the business account for companies in the Caribbean that trade with the rest of the world.
Importers, exporters and service companies in Suriname, Guyana, Curaçao and Aruba often lose days and money on every international payment. Trase gives them one account to hold 35 currencies, pay suppliers abroad and get paid by customers, all from one app.
Our goal
Make trading with the world as easy for a business in Paramaribo or Willemstad as it is for one in Amsterdam.
Questions, answered.
Can’t find what you need? Our team replies within one business day.
No. Trase is the account and app you use. The money itself is held and moved by Equals Money, a payment institution regulated by the UK Financial Conduct Authority. Your funds are kept in safeguarded accounts, separate from other money.
