Business payments to your Chinese suppliers.
When it comes to making international payments, businesses seek swiftness, simplicity, and affordability. This is especially crucial for transactions involving China, as businesses frequently encounter various obstacles like rigorous declaration procedures, currency restrictions, regulatory compliance, foreign exchange uncertainties, exorbitant fees, and language barriers during administrative tasks.
Fortunately, SUNRATE's comprehensive capabilities and strong banking network enable businesses to effortlessly and efficiently execute direct payments to their Chinese suppliers.
Differentiating between CNH and CNY
The distinction between CNY and CNH arose due to the Chinese government's efforts to internationalise its currency and facilitate cross-border trade and investment. The introduction of CNH allows for greater flexibility and accessibility in trading the RMB internationally, enabling businesses and investors to engage in offshore RMB transactions without the same level of regulatory restrictions imposed on onshore transactions in CNY.
CNY = onshore RMB which circulates ONLY within Mainland China
CNH = offshore RMB that circulates OUTSIDE of Mainland China

When e-commerce scaled in the early 2000s, the infrastructure providers that captured disproportionate value were not the ones with the most merchants or the most consumer relationships. They were the ones that built the payment rails, the fraud detection networks, and the settlement infrastructure that every merchant and every transaction depended on. The value flowed […]
The shift toward autonomous agentic commerce is reshaping how B2B platforms handle value movement, buyer-seller discovery, and transaction execution.
