This development is part of TerraPay’s ongoing expansion, contributing to its portfolio of 11 licenses and 19 regulatory approvals across 30 international markets.
The license was awarded following a comprehensive application and evaluation process by MAS. With the MPI License, TerraPay is poised to enhance its service offerings in Singapore and beyond, including Account Issuance, Domestic and Cross-border Money Transfers, Merchant Acquisition, and E-money Issuance. This expansion aims to meet the increasing demand for efficient and transparent payment solutions within the region.
Sheshagiri Malliah, managing director of TerraPay Singapore PTE, remarked on the achievement, emphasising its significance for the company’s growth and commitment to regulatory compliance and service transparency. He highlighted the company’s focus on developing strategic partnerships and innovative solutions to facilitate global financial transactions.
