Scaling Global Payment Processing for Global Mobility

Supporting global mobility at scale

Founded in Texas in 1989, Altair Global has evolved into a provider of global mobility services, supporting Fortune 500 organizations and their employees through increasingly complex international relocations. With approximately 600 employees across 11 offices worldwide, Altair manages the full lifecycle of employee mobility.

From payroll support and expense management to real estate, insurance, and family relocation services, Altair delivers an end-to-end experience supported by strategic partners across jurisdictions.

Managing growing payment volume and complexity

As Altair Global expanded its international footprint, the volume, value, and complexity of its cross-border payments increased significantly. The organization now manages more than 600 payments each month across over 30 currencies.

Each relocation event, whether related to housing, employee reimbursements, or vendor services, requires payments to be executed quickly, accurately, and in compliance with local requirements.

Replacing manual payment workflows

Altair’s existing payment processes were largely manual and increasingly difficult to scale. Key challenges included time-intensive collection and validation of beneficiary banking details, manual file handling, payment execution workflows, and increased risk of errors, delays, and operational inefficiencies.

As transaction volumes grew, Altair needed a more modern, integrated solution that could support current operations and future growth.

Building integrated payment processing

Altair Global partnered with Corpay Cross-Border in 2014 to transform its payments infrastructure and address these operational challenges.

Corpay implemented a technology-driven solution designed to integrate into Altair’s existing systems, including API integration for secure beneficiary data collection and validation, ERP file integration for custom payment uploads, and automated processing, reconciliation, and reporting.

This helped Altair move from a fragmented, manual process to a more automated and scalable global payment processing environment.

Improving accuracy, speed, and reconciliation

With API integration, ERP file uploads, and payment validation in place, transactions that previously took several days, or even up to a week, could often be completed within the same day.

By automating core payment workflows, Altair eliminated more than 40 hours of manual processing each month, reducing administrative workload and allowing internal teams to focus on higher-value activities.

Improved data integrity also helped reduce payment errors and exceptions, supporting faster processing times, fewer disruptions, and more reliable global payment flows.

Scaling without added complexity

As Altair expanded into new markets and increased transaction volumes, Corpay’s solution scaled alongside the business. The platform enabled Altair to support a broader range of currencies, payment types, and client requirements without additional headcount or operational restructuring.

The relationship has also evolved into a strategic partnership, with both teams collaborating on process optimization, planning, and future-state enhancements to support Altair’s expanding global footprint.
