By Leandra Monteiro

FOMO Pay, a Singapore one-stop payment solution provider, embarked on a partnership with Luxembourg-based licenced bank Banking Circle, to enable Collection on Behalf of (COBO) and Payment on Behalf of (POBO) services for FOMO Pay’s corporate clients in APAC.

Banking Circle is a Payments bank committed to building a local clearing network for all major currencies, to deliver the fastest, lowest cost payments, with no hidden fees for the beneficiary. It provides a suite of banking solutions, including multi-currency banking accounts and Virtual IBANs, bank connections for local clearing and cross border payments, all underpinned by market leading compliance and security.

Empowered by Banking Circle’s COBO and POBO capability, FOMO Pay’s customers can have immediate and accurate identification of underlying payers and payees when processing international and domestic multi-currency B2B transactions. With this transparency and expedition, FOMO Pay’s clients will benefit from reduced payment and invoice reconciliation and processing time. COBO and POBO also reduces opportunity for fraud, facilitates optimised treasury forecasting and credit risk monitoring, and enhances visibility on individual business units’ cash flow. Anti-Money Laundering (AML) and Know Your Customer (KYC) compliance risks are also reduced with enhanced visibility.

Zack Yang, Co-founder at FOMO Pay said, “Our enduring commitment to providing a comprehensive and robust one-stop payments solution has brought us to this partnership with Banking Circle. Banking Circle’s industry-leading COBO and POBO expertise will enable our clients to focus more on their business and spend less time on reconciliation and monitoring. We look forward to deepening this partnership as we continue to reinvent the payment experience for our customers.”

Anders la Cour, CEO, Banking Circle Group said, “We are proud to partner with FOMO Pay, a pioneer in Singapore’s fintech sector, to introduce our COBO and POBO solutions in APAC. FOMO Pay’s esteemed clientele and steadfast presence in the high-growth APAC market makes them a natural partner in this journey to bring innovative payments solutions to merchants.”

With the vision of enhancing reliability and efficacy of domestic and cross-border payments, FOMO Pay continually invests in innovative technology and infrastructure. This collaboration with Banking Circle brings new solutions to APAC and will spur further innovation across the region.
