# Nium

A global payments platform selling real-time payout, card issuance, and multi-currency account services to businesses that need to move money across borders.

**Route:** surfaced by the platform payments and embedded finance lane's de-branded queries → competitor to stripe.com.

**Why it's on the map:** Sells the same cross-border payout and card-issuing capabilities to the same financial institutions and enterprises that would shortlist Stripe for embedded financial services.

**Receipts** (verbatim from its page this run):

> Send payouts to 190+ countries via local currencies and methods

> Issue physical and virtual cards for real-time payments

> Move money across borders in real-time with secure solutions for licensed financial institutions

**Edges:**
