TrueMoney Malaysia, part of the region-leading Ascend Money financial platform, has on Tuesday announced the launch of its international remittance (IR) services in Malaysia.

The new business to business (B2B) and consumer to consumer (C2C) service offering supports business payments (B2B), with a special focus on supporting corporate partners’ import transactions, the firm said in a statement on Tuesday.

Consumers in Malaysia can also use the service to make retail (C2C) transfers.

With TrueMoney Remittance, Malaysians can now facilitate B2B transactions to all countries, offering particularly competitive rates in United States Dollars (USD), Singapore Dollars (SGD), and Thai Baht (THB).

For any C2C international remittance transactions, TrueMoney e-wallet users can now also send money with ease to seven countries: Myanmar, Cambodia, Indonesia, the Philippines, India, Nepal, and Bangladesh.

These transactions are primarily focused on migrant workers’ remittances, enabling them to conveniently send money back home using the TrueMoney e-wallet.

“At TrueMoney Malaysia, we are committed to advancing financial inclusion for all, particularly for underserved communities such as migrant workers,

“With our latest offering, the international remittance services, we aim to provide a seamless, reliable, and affordable way for consumers and businesses to send money across borders,” said Shaik Ikhwan, TrueMoney Malaysia’s Head of Commercial.

“By leveraging our comprehensive and leading digital verification capabilities, we ensure secure transactions and broad cash connectivity, reaching even the most rural areas of the receiving countries,

The launch of TrueMoney remittance is a key component of the company’s comprehensive financial inclusion framework.

TrueMoney remittance offers extensive cash connectivity, giving migrant workers more options to remit money to even the most rural areas of their home countries.

To use the TrueMoney remittance services, users must complete the necessary eKYC (electronic Know Your Customer) verification process.

Notably, TrueMoney Malaysia is one of the 11 digital remittance applications, out of 26, that offers full eKYC capability.
