If you're a mid-sized Canadian business, there's a good chance at least one of your U.S. clients is still mailing you cheques like it’s 1997.
And every time Canada Post sneezes, your payments get delayed, your finance team scrambles, and your cash flow takes a hit.
Well, it’s happening again. Another Canada Post strike is on the horizon. Mail delays. Backlogs. Finance teams staring at tracking numbers like they’re stock tickers.
Here’s the real question: Why are you still doing this?
Let’s talk about the real villain here
It’s not the post office. It’s the system you’re stuck in.
Because when you tell your U.S. client “Just wire the money,” the banks charge them $30 to $50 to send it and $10-20 to you to receive it. If they send you a USD cheque, you wait weeks. You'renot doing anything wrong. The system is broken, and you’re the one getting punished for trying to collect a payment.
You don’t need a workaround. You need a modern setup.
Here’s how teams are skipping the mess and getting paid like it's 2025:
- You get a local U.S. account without opening a U.S. bank account
- Your client sends you an ACH like they’re paying any other American vendor
- No wire fees, no postage delays, no surprise FX losses
- Funds arrive, show up in your dashboard, and sync straight into your ERP
- You hold USD, convert when it suits you, and keep more money in your pocket
That’s Finofo. Not a patch. Not a workaround. A real fix.
"The cheque is not in the mail. It’s stuck in Mississauga."
If that line gave you a flashback, you’re not alone.
Finofo’s Global Receivables is how finance teams are ditching postal roulette and upgrading
how they collect cross-border payments—for good.
We’re talking to you, mid-market CFOs, controllers, and finance leads.
If even 10% of your receivables show up via Canada Post, it’s time to change that.

And if you're still refreshing that tracking page... maybe stop.
There's a better way to get paid.
