# MANSA > Instant liquidity for cross-border payment companies MANSA is a liquidity infrastructure company for cross-border payments. It provides licensed payment service providers with on-demand stablecoin-backed capital to settle transactions without prefunding accounts. MANSA is a liquidity infrastructure company for licensed cross-border payment operators, including payment service providers, e-money institutions, and remittance platforms. It replaces the prefunding model, in which operators lock capital in accounts across multiple jurisdictions, with capital delivered at the moment of settlement. This frees working capital while transactions still settle across international corridors. The platform connects stablecoin liquidity to existing banking and wallet networks rather than building a separate payment rail. Operators reach liquidity, settlement, foreign exchange, and virtual account services through one API. Settlement runs on stablecoins, which allows continuous and auditable transaction processing. Its services include instant settlement, institutional foreign exchange pricing, and virtual IBANs for local collection and reconciliation, all built around the core liquidity product. It is used by licensed payment operators across multiple emerging markets that need to move funds across borders without large prefunded balances. - Type: Company - Sector: Payments - Status: Active - Founded: 2023-01-01 - Profile: https://thegrid.id/profiles/mansa_finance ## Products - [MANSA Protocol](https://thegrid.id/profiles/mansa_finance): MANSA Protocol is a cross-border settlement platform that provides on-demand stablecoin capital to licensed payment operators through a single API.
