If you’re not already taking advantage of digital payments, it’s a promising untapped opportunity that's accessible to most online businesses — and B2B businesses should invest now.

Accepting online payments and making payments available in multiple regions or currencies – no matter where your company is based – is not only a smart business choice, but it’s accessible using tools like HubSpot and its payment partners. When your company decides to accept online payments outside of your region, it can be an impactful first step towards building a global sales strategy.

McKinsey reports that instant payments are up globally since 2020, from company-specific commerce platforms to embedded social media selling, and predicts that cross-border payments represent a huge growth opportunity for businesses.

Ecommerce websites can now change their prices into various currencies, and seemingly anything — clothing, electronics, makeup, gaming equipment, housewares, you name it — can be shipped anywhere.

If your company is based outside of the U.S., it can be a challenge to find a payment processing system that serves your business. But that’s all changing. With the proliferation of online payment systems, the business world is more connected than ever.

By expanding your B2B’s scope to international users, you stand to gain not only customers, but increased brand awareness and reach, and a stronger foundation for your company’s future. Customers in countries other than your own can benefit from your product, so make it as easy as possible for them to do so.

In this article, we’ll get into how your B2B commerce business can start accepting payments internationally. Let your customers subscribe or buy internationally and grow your business more than you’d ever thought possible.

You’ll also have to consider localizing your content, marketing, sales, and customer support for new regions and languages.

If you’re not already accepting payments virtually, you can set it all up without leaving HubSpot using HubSpot payments. With natively-built CRM-powered payments, the customer experience is seamless and secure and you get paid faster. HubSpot payments is currently available to U.S.-based customers — with future plans to expand globally.

If your business is based outside of the U.S., you can still take payments through HubSpot thanks to the third-party apps in HubSpot's App Marketplace. These integration partners make it quick and easy to accept payments internationally, helping you grow your business.

Find a service that works with your systems, offers multiple digital payment options for customers, and has the lowest fees possible. Finally, ensure your website and company can support, fulfill, manage, and track those international transactions and orders — this is often the trickiest part.

What does your business need to accept international payments?

  1. An all-in-one CRM, such as HubSpot. This is critical for centralizing your customer’s data as you begin to expand your B2B business and accept international payments online.
  2. A payments tool, like HubSpot payments or one of HubSpot’s international payment app partners, that supports payments in the countries where you are located, sell, or accept payment from (and that integrates with your current systems)
  3. A localization department or team for new markets, including a legal or finance representative
