Collect Funds in Emerging Markets as a Global Fintech

Use this flow when you need local or regional receiving details in emerging markets, want inbound funds to settle into Verto wallets, and need those balances ready for treasury, FX, or payout workflows.

✅ Before you start

Complete these steps before you implement the collection flow:

Confirm whether your institution is using Atlas for Fintech or Atlas for Platforms based on its licence status and customer model.
Choose the currencies and corridors you want to support for inbound collections.
Create the wallet that will receive the inbound balance.
Issue the receiving details for that wallet using the supported account type for the corridor.
Register webhook endpoints so you can reconcile inbound settlements as they happen.

🧭 Which model usually fits?

Model	Use it when	Operational pattern
Atlas for Fintech	You are a licensed fintech collecting funds into your own treasury or operating balance.	Issue accounts in your own wallet context and reconcile collections directly.
Atlas for Platforms	You are not licensed or you need customer-level segregation for downstream collection flows.	Create and approve sub-accounts before you issue collection details in the downstream context.

The emerging-market collections workflow

This use case follows a simple sequence:

Create the wallet for the collection currency.
Issue the local or supported receiving details for that wallet.
Provide the sender instructions exactly as returned for that corridor.
Listen for the inbound settlement events and wait for the collection to reach the completed state.
Reconcile the wallet credit before you convert, sweep, or pay out the balance.

What makes this use case different?

Unlike a payout-led integration, this flow depends on collection readiness first:

the account details determine how the sender funds you
settlement timing depends on the rail and corridor
reconciliation controls determine when the balance becomes usable downstream

Optional: Convert or route funds onward

Once the inbound balance is confirmed, you can move into treasury or outbound payment workflows.

That can include FX conversion, internal balance management, or a later payout flow funded from the collected wallet balance.

Where to go deeper

Use the product guides when you need implementation detail for a specific step:

Troubleshooting

Issue	What to check
You cannot issue the receiving details you expect	Confirm the corridor is supported for your account and that the wallet already exists for the target currency.
Funds are sent but not allocated correctly	Check whether the account is pooled and whether the payer included the required reference value.
Webhook arrives but your internal balance is wrong	Reconcile only from the completed inbound event and compare it with your statement data.
The wrong customer context receives the funds	Verify whether the account was issued in the intended master or sub-account context.
