About Oncade

The US dollar account for businesses that bill US clients

Oncade is a business account that lets companies in the Philippines, Mexico and Brazil get paid in dollars, hold them as dollars, and bring the money home when the rate suits them.

What we do

What Oncade does

  • Get paid like a US company

    Your clients pay your own US account number by ACH or wire, and to them it looks like a domestic transfer. We also issue EU account numbers, and local receiving accounts in the UK, Mexico and Brazil.

  • Hold your dollars as dollars

    Payments land as dollars, with no forced conversion on arrival. You keep them in dollars for as long as you want, and your balance is held separately from ours.

  • Bring it home when you choose

    You see the rate before you convert, every time. Pesos land in your local bank in seconds, any day of the week: InstaPay and PESONet in the Philippines, SPEI in Mexico. In Brazil, reais land by PIX.

  • Pay contractors and offshore staff

    Send payments by bank transfer to contractors in 95 countries and territories, from the same balance your clients paid into.

  • Payouts for platforms

    Platforms and publishers use Oncade to split revenue between creators and contributors and pay each one out.

Why Oncade

What makes Oncade different

  1. 01

    A US and EU account number, without a US or EU company

    Opening a US business bank account usually means forming a US company, getting a US tax ID and showing a US address. Oncade gives your Philippine, Mexican or Brazilian company its own US and EU account numbers through our licensed banking partners, with no company to set up abroad. Your clients pay you the way they pay any domestic vendor.

  2. 02

    You decide when to convert

    A dollar payment into a Philippine or Mexican bank account usually converts on arrival, at a rate the bank picks and you learn about afterwards. With Oncade the dollars stay dollars until you choose to convert, and you see the rate first.

  3. 03

    Money home in seconds, not days

    A SWIFT wire runs on bank cutoffs and holidays, costs $25 to $50 per transfer, and carries a 2 to 4% currency spread. Oncade lands pesos in seconds, any day of the week, over InstaPay, PESONet and SPEI.

  4. 04

    One account instead of five logins

    Most agencies run a US receiving account, a local bank, a payout tool, a spreadsheet and email threads to tie them together. Oncade puts getting paid, holding, converting and paying your team in one place.

  5. 05

    The fees you're paying now

    PayPal Philippines charges 4.4% plus ₱15 on international payments, plus a 3% conversion fee. Payoneer charges 1% to receive and 1.2 to 4% to withdraw with conversion.

Compliance & Security

Compliant by design

Regulatory compliance isn't an afterthought. It's built into every layer of our platform.

KYC & AML Compliance

Identity verification and anti-money-laundering procedures are built into every transaction. Every user and recipient is verified. Continuous monitoring flags suspicious activity in real time.

MiCA Regulation

We do not custody, exchange, or advise on digital assets. Oncade operates as a technical service provider under the EU's Markets in Crypto-Assets regulation. Our infrastructure-only model falls outside the scope of Crypto-Asset Service Provider (CASP) authorization.

GDPR-Compliant Data Practices

We follow EU General Data Protection Regulation standards for data collection, storage, and processing. User data is handled with privacy by design. Data minimization and purpose limitation are enforced across every service.

Licensed Payment Partners

All payments are processed through licensed and regulated financial institutions, ensuring full regulatory coverage across every jurisdiction we serve.

Enterprise-Grade Wallets, Segregated Balances

Customer funds are held in enterprise-grade wallets secured by Coinbase, Circle, and Privy. Every balance is segregated per customer, never pooled or commingled, and never on Oncade's balance sheet. Payments settle through our licensed partners on regulated rails, so your balance carries no Oncade counterparty risk.
