Payoneer is increasingly integrating itself into the core operations of its users, particularly the fast-growing global SMBs and digital-first enterprises it serves. The company’s recent product updates demonstrate its ambitions, positioning itself as a critical platform for how global businesses transfer and manage funds. A key part of this update is Payoneer’s new integration with NetSuite. It allows for real-time data syncing between Payoneer and NetSuite’s ERP system, helping businesses cut down on manual uploads and reduce the typical end-of-month reconciliation workload. In addition, Payoneer now supports PayPal payments globally, giving businesses another option for how they get paid. Combined with features like unified payment requests and automated invoicing, these tools are meant to ease the operational burden, particularly for smaller teams managing payments with limited resources. The third product update enables local spending in Japanese Yen via Payoneer Card and smarter FX tools (including real-time alerts and target rate conversions). This hints at a broader strategy: helping businesses manage global money flows with the same ease they expect from domestic tools.
