Business banking for dev shops that retainer clients abroad
Retainers land, payroll goes out, and the tool stack sits on cards you control. One account carries the whole month, without a wire for every corner of the business.
Client funds are held separately from Fasset’s own.
Illustrative. Figures and names are examples, not real accounts or customers.
Where a dev shop's money actually leaks
A wire from a client abroad takes 1 to 3 business days to clear and loses money to flat fees and spread, on top of whatever your client's bank charged to send it. Five retainer wires a month do not show up on any invoice. They show up in the gap between what the client paid and what arrived. Run your own numbers in the transfer fee calculator.
Spend
The tool stack, on cards you control
Figma, AWS, Linear, Vercel, Anthropic and Notion all bill in dollars. Virtual cards pay them from the USD balance, one per tool, with a limit you change without reissuing.
Business is $29 a month. On top of that, a dev shop pays per transfer when a client payment comes in or a contractor gets paid, at the prices on the pricing page.
Common questions
How does a dev shop invoice retainer clients without chasing a wire every month?
A retainer invoice sent through Fasset carries a hosted payment link, so a client in San Francisco or Amsterdam can pay by card or bank transfer as soon as the invoice goes out. It settles on USDT, a stablecoin designed to track the US dollar, in about 20 seconds, instead of the 1 to 3 business days a wire takes.
Can I pay a distributed team across different countries from the same account?
Yes. Payroll covers the markets we serve from one account, so a studio hiring across several growth markets runs one payout instead of a different bank transfer for every country on the team.
Do I need a company card for tools like AWS and Figma?
Virtual cards are issued per teammate or per tool, so a studio can put Figma, AWS, Linear, Vercel, Anthropic and Notion on cards it controls and cancels individually, instead of one shared card everyone shares a login for.
Is Fasset a bank?
No. Fasset Business is a technology platform, not a bank. Banking, payment and card services are provided by licensed third-party institutions in each market, and client funds are held at those institutions, separately from Fasset's own money.
