Banking Circle has a new home in Singapore! We are proud to announce the opening of our new Singapore office, a new chapter in our ongoing expansion and deepening investment across Asia. Since establishing our presence four years ago, Singapore has become a cornerstone of our regional operations and will serve as a hub for innovation and growth across APAC. A heartfelt thank you to more than 100 leaders and partners from across the payments ecosystem who joined us at our office warming last evening - your energy, partnership and shared vision continue to make our work meaningful and drive this community forward. Reflecting on the journey, Mishal Ruparel, our Chief Commercial Officer, shared: “Today is not about real-time payments, it’s about real-time connections. Every person in this room has helped build the incredible payments ecosystem we’re all part of, and I’m genuinely excited for the journey ahead.” We’re also deeply grateful to Global Finance & Technology Network (GFTN) for their continued support and partnership in strengthening Singapore’s fintech ecosystem. As Sopnendu Mohanty, Group Chief Executive Officer at GFTN, noted: “For many years, I’ve spoken about the need for banks that are 100% cloud-native, and Banking Circle is showing Singapore’s story to the world. You’re building next-generation infrastructure that redefines global payments.” More than just a new address, our Singapore office is where we will further deepen our partnerships, foster fresh ideas and where the future of payments will continue to be built. #singapore #payments #crossborderpayments #banking #finance #officeopening #globalpayments

The future of payments is fast, transparent, and borderless. Over dinner with our clients, and prospects at #GlobalFintechFest, a key theme became clear. India’s fintechs are ready to go global and embrace the future of payments, but doing so demands the right infrastructure to match their ambition. That’s exactly what Banking Circle is building. We are working to be the infrastructure that helps India’s fintech ecosystem to scale internationally, connecting local expertise with global markets and pioneering technology. Through collaborations with a broad range of fintechs, including Skydo, PayGlocal, EBIXCASH World Money, and BRISKPE, we’re helping transform vision into reality. Our single global payments platform gives businesses real-time, multi-currency access through one API - cutting complexity, boosting speed, and redefining cross-border payments.

Another Indian success story announcement:   India’s micro, small and medium enterprises are ready to go global but outdated payment rails have long held them back. High costs, unpredictable delays, and limited visibility have slowed growth for millions of exporters.   That’s changing.   Through Banking Circle’s direct payment rails and virtual accounts, BRISKPE is enabling exporters on platforms like Amazon and Etsy to collect payments as easily as local sellers in multiple currencies.   The impact is clear: over 70% cost savings, faster settlements, and greater transparency.   Mishal Ruparel, Chief Commercial Officer at Banking Circle, notes: “This is more than just about efficiency, it’s about giving Indian businesses the confidence that when they sell to the world, their payments come home reliably and friction-free.”   As the fintech world gathers at #GlobalFintechFest, this collaboration reflects a bigger shift: India’s cross-border payments are entering a new era - one defined by speed, trust, and scale.

Cross-border education payments shouldn’t be slow, unpredictable, or complex. With Banking Circle’s scalable infrastructure, EBIXCASH World Money is transforming international education payments - delivering faster, smarter, and more transparent transfers. By connecting directly to nostro accounts and local payment rails, they’re cutting out unnecessary delays, simplifying reconciliation, and setting a new benchmark for education remittances. Students and parents benefit from quicker settlements, while universities enjoy faster refunds and greater clarity. As Mishal Ruparel, Chief Commercial Officer at Banking Circle, explains: “We’re building a future-ready platform that bridges current market gaps and redefines how India connects with the global economy. Through the synergy of Banking Circle’s global network and EbixCash’s deep remittance expertise, we’re enabling cross-border payments that are faster, more transparent, and fully compliant.” Together, we are redefining how education payments move across borders.

BIG NEWS: A milestone moment at #SIBOS 2025 Today, we’re marking an important step forward together with DBS Bank, unveiling a collaboration that enables seamless, real-time EUR payouts from Asia to Europe. This is another key moment in building the next generation of global payments by simplifying complexity, reducing costs, and empowering businesses to move money with confidence. Thank you Simon Ong and Sriram Muthukrishnan for marking this moment at Sibos with Morten Lilleøre and Mikkel Grønlykke.

Stablecoins aren’t just a buzzword anymore. They’re reshaping global finance. Adoption is accelerating. Regulators are putting guardrails in place. And financial institutions everywhere are asking the same question: How do we take stablecoins from pilot to scale? Tomorrow at Sibos, our Head of Payment Innovation, Paul Li, will tackle that question head-on at Exhibition Stage 2 from 15:00 - 15:30. He’ll share first-hand lessons from launching EURI, the first MiCA-regulated, bank-backed stablecoin, and what it means for banks, PSPs, and the future of payments. And the conversation doesn’t stop in Frankfurt. With TOKEN2049 Singapore just days away, stablecoins remain at the center of global conversations on the future of money - from Europe to Asia and beyond. #stablecoins #paymentinnovation #payments #banks #banking #finance #crossborderpayments
