London/São Paulo 31 May 2018: InstaReM, Asia’s leading digital cross-border payment provider, has partnered with São Paulo-based BeeTech, a market-leading South American payment service provider, on Ripple’s leading enterprise blockchain network for payments. This partnership is the first of its kind between a non-bank RippleNet member in Asia and in South America, and will enable their customers to benefit from fast, transparent and low-cost Ripple-powered payments across a greater number of markets.
The collaboration between BeeTech and InstaReM follows shortly after both international money transfer companies signed with Ripple, the world’s only enterprise blockchain solution for global payments. Customers will now be able to make payments to and from markets where the companies operate – in real time, and at low cost, starting in May 2018.
Singapore-headquartered InstaReM offers payment services to over 55 countries, including markets in Southeast Asia and Europe. The partnership with Beetech will enable InstaReM customers to send real-time payments into South America. BeeTech customers will benefit from instant pay out services into the 60 markets across the world that InstaReM supports.
Announcing the tie-up with BeeTech, Prajit Nanu, Co-founder and CEO of InstaReM, said:
“We are very excited to partner with Brazil’s BeeTech over RippleNet. The connectivity that Ripple’s innovative blockchain network provides will allow us to offer our customers – including corporates and small businesses – quick, hassle-free payments into BeeTech’s markets.”
