London, 1st February 2021 – HIPS Payment Group Ltd, a provider of innovative and cost-effective e-commerce and mobile payment solutions, and licensed bank, Banking Circle, which delivers ground-breaking financial infrastructure for Payment businesses and Banks, today announced their partnership, which enables Hips to offer settlement with domestic payment rails.
“With this important partnership, Hips can easily provide our payment product solutions globally as Banking Circle allows us to offer instant currency conversion, providing our customers with a means to purchase any items or services in their own currency,” says John Cavebring, CEO of Hips.
“This partnership strengthens our global leadership in simplifying payment processing for a business of any size.”
The two companies will leverage each other’s technology to bypass old, bureaucratic and expensive systems. Instead of sending expensive international wire transfers, Hips can now use Banking Circle’s infrastructure to send payouts to merchants quickly, at low cost, compliantly and securely.
Anders la Cour, co-founder and Chief Executive Officer of Banking Circle added: “We are delighted to be working with Hips, as our collaborative technologies will further enable Payments businesses to seize more opportunities in the new economy. Our partnership provides modern and efficient methods of international payments and settlements and FX, underpinned by strong compliance enabling Hips to add value to its service proposition.”

Sometimes our e-mails end up in spam. Make sure to check your spam folder for e-mails from The Payments Association
Most modern e-mail clients now separate e-mails into different tabs. For example, Outlook has an “Other” tab, and Gmail has tabs for different types of e-mails, such as promotional.
For security reasons the link will expire after 60 minutes. Try submitting the login form again and wait a few seconds for the e-mail to arrive.
The link will only work one time – once it’s been clicked, the link won’t log you in again. Instead, you’ll need to go back to the login screen and generate a new link.
Make sure you’re clicking the link on the most recent e-mail that’s been sent to you. We recommend deleting the e-mail once you’ve clicked the link.
Some security systems will automatically click on links in e-mails to check for phishing, malware, viruses and other malicious threats. If these have been clicked, it won’t work when you try to click on the link.
For security reasons, e-mail address changes can only be complete by your Member Engagement Manager. Please contact the team directly for further help.
