Virtual Accounts Overview

Virtual Accounts, a.k.a Multi-Currency Account (MCA), Vostro, Nostro

Enabling Virtual Accounts is handled on a request-only basis to provide more control for your financial institution regarding users who have these accounts enabled.

To enable an account, please place a request with the PayRecs support team and provide the following information:

  • Company Name (please consider if this is the "parent" company or a subsidiary - we will only enable for the explicit name you request unless you also instruct a specific or all subsidiaries")

  • Currencies you would like to enable

  • Confirm if this will be used for incoming wires. We will provide you with new wire instructions in order to receive FX wires into the account.

Once enabled, the account will be visible under the "Accounts" menu in the PayRecs platform.

  • Outbound Payment - Allows you to send a wire from this account to a recipient

  • Fund Account - Allows you to purchase and hold foreign currency in that account utilizing your USD accounts hosted by your Financial Institution
