Set up overseas supplier payments for review

Documented elsewhere: the approved AI agent, connected to Airwallex Agentic Business Accounts, checks balances across accounts holding the needed currency and prepares the overseas supplier payment details. It does this entirely within rules Someone has set. The agent executes the account checks and payment setup steps that would otherwise require jumping between bank logins.

How you could try it

Here is a reusable prompt, written by us in our own words, that captures the task. Paste it into your own agent or any similar agent and adjust the details to your situation.

Finance task: set up overseas supplier payments for review. Tabulate numbers, mark uncertainties, and do not file, pay, or submit until I confirm.

Tip: Keep the agent in 'propose, don't pay' mode: let it gather numbers and draft messages, and approve any payment or account change yourself.
