Cross-border B2B payments to surpass $40 trillion globally by 2024

Currently, instant payments are restricted to certain cross-border destinations, accounting for just 8 percent of cross-border transactions.
A new study from Juniper Research has found that the global spend on B2B cross-border payments will exceed $40 trillion by the end of 2024, increasing from $37 trillion in 2022. The 9 percent growth will be driven by the rising popularity of eCommerce marketplaces, where eCommerce merchants are based in international locations, selling goods internationally via locally based eCommerce services.
Cross-border transactions have typically been slow, expensive, and difficult to track, a problem that has been exacerbated by the complex accounts payable processes common with larger enterprises.
However, the rise of cross-border instant payments, where payments are transacted in 10 seconds or under, is significantly improving this difficult situation.
