# Orbital > Move money smarter Orbital is a payment orchestration company that combines stablecoin infrastructure with traditional payment rails. It helps global enterprises accept, exchange, and settle payments across fiat currencies and stablecoins. Orbital is a payment orchestration company that unifies stablecoin infrastructure with traditional banking rails for global businesses. It allows enterprises to accept, exchange, and settle payments across traditional currencies, a range of exotic currencies, and major stablecoins through a single platform. The company is aimed at businesses that move money across borders and want faster settlement than conventional banking channels typically allow. The platform addresses delays and intermediary costs common in cross-border payments by linking stablecoin settlement with local currency payment networks. Businesses can send and receive funds through a web platform, an API, or an over-the-counter desk for larger exchange requests. Orbital is licensed and regulated across multiple jurisdictions and applies built-in compliance controls, including transaction monitoring, to its payment flows. Its product offering includes pay-in and payout services, named virtual IBANs, stablecoin wallets, and currency exchange spanning fiat and digital assets. Orbital serves both business-to-business clients handling supplier, customer, and payroll payments, and business-to-consumer platforms accepting payments from emerging markets. It is used by companies operating across multiple regions that need a combined stablecoin and traditional payment infrastructure. - Type: Company - Sector: Payments - Status: Active - Founded: 2017-05-01 - Profile: https://thegrid.id/profiles/orbital ## Products - [Orbital Platform](https://thegrid.id/profiles/orbital): Orbital Platform is a payment network that unifies stablecoin and traditional payment rails for enterprises moving money across borders. It provides multi-currency accounts, named virtual IBANs, stablecoin wallets, and real-time currency exchange, with automated settlement for business transactions. Businesses receive, hold, exchange, and send funds across stablecoins, fiat currencies, and exotic currencies through a single web platform, initiating transfers via the web interface, bulk files, or a dedicated trading desk for large or complex trades. The dedicated desk negotiates tailored pricing for high-value or non-standard currency exchanges outside the standard automated flow.

Developers use it to embed pay-in, payout, and exchange functionality with real-time transaction reporting into their own applications, independent of the Orbital web platform interface. The API connects to multiple blockchain networks and payment rails, letting businesses build custom crypto and fiat payment flows within their own products.
