Send & Recieve money across borders. See the full cost before you confirm

Alt21 shows you the mid-market rate, the spread, and the all-in cost before every payment in 180+ countries. No hidden margin. No surprises.

Why We Exist

The payments industry has a transparency problem.

Every time you convert currency through your bank, a margin is embedded in the rate. It's not hidden in the small print — it's just never shown to you at all. Alt21 was built around one principle: you should see the full cost before you commit. Every time.
