The company noted that the US and Canada markets have a potential payments ecosystem with considerable business, personal and education payment needs.

Its expansion into these markets will enable individuals and businesses to send and receive remittances via TerraPay’s partner networks.

TerraPay regional director Philip Daniel said: “Our solution enables P2P and B2B fund transfers on the same day compared to the current 2-3 days delivery as with traditional banking channels. Our partners and end consumers benefit from higher cost efficiencies and increased revenues, transforming the future of efficient digital money transfers.”

In October last year, TerraPay obtained its MSB registration from the Financial Transactions and Reports Analysis Centre of Canada (FINTRAC), as part of its move to foray into North America.
