MyCash, established in Singapore, will expand geographically into other Asian regions, such as Malaysia and Indonesia, Vietnam, Thailand, Sri Lanka, Nepal, and Bangladesh.
“The expanded demand for cross-border B2B remittance will continue to drive further growth for both companies,” said Eldwin Wong, CEO and Founder of INFT Group. Last month, INFT said it was rolling out a buy now, pay later feature, called INFT BNPL, to help customers grow their businesses.
According to MyCash Founder and CEO Mehedi Hasan, the acquisition amplified the value of its offerings to its shareholders and stakeholders with the strategically-planned growth trajectory to strengthen its position further.
He added that,
“Additionally, INFT’s business banking platform will enhance MyCash’s efforts to drive expansion for its B2B and B2C remittance solutions. We are currently working on a new SME buy-now-pay-later business in Bangladesh.”
