Notes
- All fees are denominated in USD cents (or basis points where labelled "percent"). Vendor pass-throughs may settle in the local currency of the corridor.
- You pay zero to Glide for the platform. The fees above are all pass-through to the partner fintechs and banks that perform the regulated leg - the same vendors you would integrate with directly.
- Pricing is held flat during the public-beta period. Any platform fee will be added transparently with at least 30 days notice.
- Use the `pricing.get` MCP tool for programmatic access. The same constant powers this page and the tool - no drift.
Programmatic access
Agents can query the same pricing document via MCP. The constant backing this page is the constant the tool returns - zero drift.
