The problem

Getting paid from abroad meant days of beneficiary setup, then more days waiting on the wire.

Clients stalled on a clunky payment page, and Skydo was losing that volume to easier rivals.

The solution

InstaLinks is a payment link: send it for an invoice, the client pays by card or bank, no login.

Money settles in the exporter's account in rupees, tracked, with the compliance paperwork done.
