Todays pressrelease, Centiglobe builds infrastructure for global payments Global payments, First up - Bangladesh,
Stockholm-based startup Centiglobe is building a global payment infrastructure, with instant clearing between banks and mobile wallets. The project is made in collaboration with local actors and some of the major banks in Bangladesh. The first live transaction was successfully executed on September 13 this year.
“Right now, we want to help banks streamline internal transactions so we in the future also could help the people depending on remittance services to retain more of today’s high fees. This is a big thing for guest workers who send money home to their families” says Martin Edward, who leads the project with Centiglobe in Bangladesh.
Centiglobes vision is to change the global payment market with the help of new technology that streamlines international payments. Through a joint-research collaboration project with professors and other faculty from Stockholm School of Economics and The Royal Institute of Technology, the new solution allows costs to be reduced by close to 90 percent for international transactions and for the transactions to be made in real-time.
