Tranglo launches real-time payments to Malaysia

It now processes more than 80% of its cross-border transactions in real-time

SINGAPORE, Nov. 16, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Tranglo Pte Ltd is excited to announce the launch of real-time cross-border payments to Malaysia in line with the global fintech's mid-term plan to modernise its processes in the region.

With this announcement, Tranglo now performs more than 80% of its cross-border payments in real-time. It comes as Malaysia is seeing extraordinary growth in real-time transactions.

According to the country's central payment network PayNet, its real-time payment platform DuitNow has processed over 2 billion transactions in the last 3 years, representing a growth of more than 800%. Real-time transactions in Malaysia are expected to reach 7 billion in volume by 2025, it added.

DuitNow connects most bank accounts and e-wallets in the country.

Tranglo Group CEO Jacky Lee said: "Our regional payout capabilities just got a real shot in the arm. The ubiquity of DuitNow means infrastructure support for real-time transactions not just within Malaysia, but across ASEAN. That is a huge market that our global business partners can tap into via Tranglo."

Tranglo's real-time payout service is available 24/7 and supports both individual and business senders. Beneficiaries will receive the funds in Malaysia within minutes, subject to terms and conditions.
