Rationale
IntaSend is a Kenyan-based payment gateway that facilitates payment collection and disbursement. While it offers features like transparent fees, fast transfers, batch payments, and API integration, it primarily focuses on local Kenyan payment methods (M-Pesa, local cards) and does not explicitly mention mid-market exchange rates or multi-currency accounts for holding balances in the same way Wise does. It supports multi-currency for collection and disbursement, but not as a borderless account for holding and managing funds in various currencies. The 'Wallet as a Service' offers multi-currency support for KES, USD, EUR, and GBP, which partially aligns with the multi-currency account feature, but the core value proposition is different. It also lacks a borderless debit card feature.
