Collar is the settlement platform built for real estate agencies in Latin America. Get your settlements confirmed in minutes — no US bank account, no wire delays, no lost deals.
The problem
Real estate agencies in LATAM lose transactions every week — not because of the property, but because getting paid from abroad is broken.
International wire transfers require US bank accounts most LATAM agencies don't have. Buyers are ready to pay — but there's nowhere to send the money.
By the time funds arrive, deals collapse. Buyers lose confidence. Sellers lose patience. The agency loses the commission.
On a $50,000 transaction, that's up to $2,500 gone before the agency sees a dollar. Traditional rails are built to extract value, not deliver it.
Buyers need to know funds will arrive. Sellers need certainty before signing. Without the right settlement infrastructure, every deal is a leap of faith.
How it works
Four steps. Under an hour. No complexity on your side.
Sign up on Collar and complete your identity verification through Sumsub. Once approved, your agency is activated on the Collar platform and ready to start processing settlements.
Share Collar's payment details with your buyer. They send USD via ACH or wire from their US bank — the same way they'd pay any bill. No crypto knowledge needed.
The moment the buyer's payment is received and confirmed by Bridge, settlement is confirmed and your transaction moves to closing. Your Collar dashboard updates automatically in real time.
Once the legal process is complete and both parties agree, Collar completes the settlement with a permanent hash recorded on Stellar blockchain. Your agency receives payment confirmation instantly — with a verifiable on-chain record of every step.
For your agency
US buyers pay Collar directly for the settlement service. Your agency receives confirmation and USDC within the hour. No US bank account required. No complicated setup. Just close the deal and get paid.
When buyers can pay instantly from their US bank and settlement confirms within the hour, deals don't fall through. Collar eliminates the #1 reason LATAM real estate transactions fail.
Complete your KYC/KYB verification through Sumsub directly on Collar. No branch visits, no paperwork. Your agency is active and ready before your next closing.
Every settlement is recorded with a permanent, verifiable hash on Stellar blockchain. Share proof of settlement with sellers and buyers at any moment. Full transparency for every closing.
Once settlement is confirmed, your agency receives USDC in your Collar wallet. You decide how and when to convert to local currency through your preferred channel.
When payment infrastructure stops being a barrier, your agency can work with international buyers confidently. More deals in the pipeline, more deals that actually close.
