The partnership with Ripple was first announced in December last year with the aim to facilitate cross-border transactions between Australia and the South East Asia region.
With Novatti’s main focus on the Philippines, the company joined forces with remittance service provider, iRemit, through RippleNet. iRemit is Philippines’s largest non-bank in providing fund transfer and remittance services to overseas-based Filipino workers and migrant workers.
The arrangement is expected to generate several thousand transactions each month being processed by Novatti through RippleNet.
This company have been building on an existing list of tier one global partnerships with the likes of Google Pay, Samsung Pay, Union Pay, Visa and Alipay under their belt enabling a range of finance technology solutions. These include providing bill payment services under the banner of ChinaPayments, Flexepin a cash top-up voucher, Flexewallet for remittance and compliance services and prepaid cards under VascoPay just to name a few.
CEO & Managing Director of Novatti, Peter Cook, said “we are delighted to see this partnership delivering for both Novatti and Ripple in such a short period of time. The partnership with Ripple not only provides Novatti’s customers with access to new, innovative payment solutions, it also highlights how Novatti’s partnerships translate into revenue.”
