    UniTeller Grows Remittance Network Across APAC

    The U.S. based cross-border and remittance payments processor is extending its remittance services to more customers in the Asia Pacific under a partnership with Tranglo.

    UniTeller has announced a partnership with Tranglo to further expand its services in 13 Asia Pacific markets, including Bangladesh, India, Indonesia and Nepal.

    The partnership will add more than 58,000 cash pick-up points, more than 1,100 account deposit banks, and nine e-wallet platforms to its existing paying network of 90,000 paying locations in the region, according to an announcement on Thursday.

    UniTeller CEO Alberto Guerra said the partnership is a great step forward in the company’s expansion plan for the Asia Pacific this year.

    Founded in Malaysia in 2008, Tranglo operates a cross-border payment hub that provides smart services for mobile airtime top-ups, as well as foreign remittance and business payments.

    Earlier this year, Ripple acquired a 40-percent stake in Tranglo, to allow the blockchain payments company to meet growing customer demand in APAC, one of the fastest-growing regions for RippleNet. As such, UniTeller’s partnership with Tranglo also gives it access to RippleNet.

    Its growing cooperation follows Ripple’s acquisition of a 40 percent stake in Tranglo to scale the footprint of RippleNet in APAC and beyond.

    Tranglo has launched its first live On-Demand Liquidity (ODL) service on RippleNet to enable instant and low-cost cross-border payments in the Philippines, with plans to introduce more ODL corridors in the months to come, Ripple said in a statement on Thursday.

    Tranglo has also established multiple fiat connections with existing RippleNet customers, including BKK Forex, DeeMoney and Siam Commercial Bank, which will allow it to process multiple currencies in Asia Pacific, including Philippines Peso and Thai Baht.

    Founded in Malaysia in 2008, Tranglo operates a cross-border payment hub that provides smart services for mobile airtime top-ups, as well as foreign remittance and business payments.

    The strong traction with Tranglo in the past 6 months alone is testament to how we’re executing well on our shared mission to transform the cross-border payments experience in Asia Pacific, a region which is often tricky to navigate, Brooks Entwistle, RippleNet managing director in APAC and MENA, said in the statement.

    Ripple noted that APAC is one of the fastest-growing regions for RippleNet, with transactions growing 130 percent year-over-year.
