The Slash Global USD Card is finally here.³ Issued by our partner, Rain, the Slash Global USD card lets international businesses spend their USD balance anywhere Visa is accepted without needing a U.S. bank account or U.S.-incorporated entity.

Until now, even if you could hold USD, actually using it was a different story. You still had to move money through banks, deal with delays, or convert back into your local currency just to pay for everyday expenses.

Now, not only can you hold and receive USD without setting up a U.S. entity, you can spend it directly. Pay vendors, run ads, cover software subscriptions, and handle operating expenses in USD without extra steps in between.

Our Global USD Account

Let’s go through a quick refresher on how the Slash Global USD Account works. With this account, businesses in more than 130 countries get access to U.S. dollar infrastructure without setting up a U.S. entity. Your balance is held in USDSL, a stablecoin pegged 1:1 to the U.S. dollar.

Accounts can be funded through ACH, SWIFT, stablecoin deposits like USDC or USDT, or platform payouts from services like Stripe and Shopify.⁴ You get U.S. account and routing numbers for traditional transfers, along with access to faster crypto rails when needed.

The Global USD Account is built for international service businesses, ecommerce sellers, remote teams, and crypto-native companies that need reliable access to USD without the overhead of U.S. incorporation.

How the Global USD Card works

When you make a purchase with the Global USD card, the funds are drawn directly from your USDSL balance without currency conversions, intermediary banks, or delays. From your perspective, it works just like a regular card payment. Your USDSL is off-ramped at the point of sale, and settlement is batched each hour.

Here's what you get:

  • Virtual and physical cards: Virtual cards are created instantly and ready to use for online purchases and vendor payments, while physical cards are shipped right to your door for in-person transactions.
  • Real-time authorization: Purchases are authorized against your USDSL balance in real time.
  • Company branding: Your business name can be displayed on the card.
  • Full card controls: Set spending limits, freeze and unfreeze cards, and manage your team's spend from the Slash dashboard.
