Key Toqio features that help you grow
Toqio provides the essential tools corporates need to foster growth in an ecosystem where everybody wins - the corporate, associated merchants, and participating financial institutions. By offering full control over financial solutions, Toqio creates a working environment where rapid, sustainable growth can be cultivated. Here are some of our solutions and what they offer.
Revenue collection
- The aggregation of multiple financial products from an array of top tier providers on a single platform.
- Revenue clarity on an aggregated platform, meaning corporates can see PoS, A2A, digital cash, direct debit collection, and more in the same place.
- The ability to offer competitive financial products to merchants because of combined negotiation power.
- Insights on transactions with regard to merchant revenue collection points, such as what is being sold on PoS, what items generate the most sales, what the high/low buying periods are, etc.

Payment automation and reconciliation
- Payment rules that drive the bulk collection of payments from merchant accounts i.e., an ERP directly connected to Toqio sends payment notifications to merchant accounts.
- Automated collections go from merchant accounts directly to corporates, such as to pay for invoices (this is dependent on agreements between merchants and corporates).
- Corporates can offer merchants payment flexibility, such as settling payments in 30/60/90 days in return for a fee or a discount.
Cash distribution
- Corporates and other large organizations (such as NGOs, IGOs) can distribute cash digitally via topped up cards or digital wallets. The organization maintains full control over spending limits, currencies allowed, etc.
- Toqio provides a full holistic view of spend via consolidated tracking on a single platform.
Lending and financing
- Merchants can get cash advance lending, borrowed against revenue collections which the corporate see in the same place in a consolidated view highlighting lending, accounts, PoS with automatic payment orchestration, and more.
- Multiple financing streams from various lenders ensure merchants get the best sources possible to meet their cash flow needs - the right amount at the right time.

Understanding the challenges that limit growth
Citibank estimates that nearly 48% of corporates struggle with trapped liquidity, with key third parties like merchants, distributors, and sole traders lacking access to the tailored financial products they need. This can be attributed, in large part, to the rigidity of financial services available from traditional banks and neo-fintechs. Keep reading to learn about the four key challenges we've identified that an embedded finance solution can solve.
1. Proposition differentiation
Corporates often struggle to create unique offerings because:
- Corporates can't leverage the deep network knowledge and data they gather.
- Not having holistic data, it's difficult for them to tailor products to specific merchant challenges, such as a lack of liquidity.
- They can't hyper-personalize merchant offerings, which means they miss valuable growth opportunities.
The path to growth
- By empowering corporates to offer tailored financial solutions to merchants, they gain full clarity on merchant operations and can proactively offer products or services as required.
- We help open up new revenue streams as the corporate differentiates itself from the competition, enjoying a clearly unfair advantage.
2. Monolithic product offerings
A lack of financial service flexibility negatively affects corporates:
- Many rely on a single financial service provider.
- They get locked into their provider's pricing models and product strategies, so they can't adapt to specific regional needs or explore better options.
- Banking dependency stifles innovation and restricts growth opportunities.
The path to growth
- Corporates should be able to select financial products from multiple providers. By choosing options in line with business goals, corporates can optimize costs, unlock new capabilities, and offer flexible financial solutions to networks.
- The freedom to rebundle offerings through multi-banking enables greater innovation and further growth potential.
3. Complex user journeys
Fragmented and inefficient merchant journeys can cause many issues:
- Many businesses still rely on outdated tools for accounting, many of which are physical, not digital.
- They also tend to juggle multiple banking accounts - one for a mortgage or lease, one for payroll, one for expense accounts and cards, etc.
- This disjointed approach reduces adoption rates and hampers network efficiency due to the lack of a centralized and agile digital environment.
The path to growth
- Corporates are uniquely positioned to offer merchants an ecosystem where essential finance functions can be centrally managed.
- By using the corporate's simple and unified finance environment (built on Toqio), small businesses massively improve efficiency.
- The corporate becomes the trusted first stop for merchants when a financial product is required: higher retention equals a stronger supply chain.
4. High implementation costs
Implementing financial services can be a costly and lengthy process:
- Existing corporate systems may use inefficient technologies or require long-term service agreements., limiting their ability to innovate and explore new service offerings.
- Corporates also tend to encounter difficulties when integrating legacy systems with newer cloud-native platforms.
- Additionally, they often incur excessive service and administrative fees to banks, hindering growth and agility.
The path to growth
- Corporates should be free to explore and adopt services from multiple FIs without being tied to existing technologies or agreements.
- Toqio simplifies integration and reduces implementation costs - corporates can inexpensively enhance the health of their ecosystems.
- Corporates can reduce or eliminate unnecessary fees - they can even monetize by charging their own.
