Wirex Launches Crypto-Backed Credit

 

Wirex, the leading payments platform, has launched Wirex Credit, offering highly competitive interest rates and no origination fee for crypto-backed loans. Users can easily borrow up to $100,000 in stablecoins, with a loan to value (LTV) of up to 80% within the Wirex app.

Crypto loans have become hugely popular in recent months due to their advantages over traditional loans. Wirex’s core aim is to bring the benefits of DeFi to the mass market, and Wirex Credit adds new use cases for crypto to their 5 million customers.

The product enables users to gain access to credit regardless of market conditions, whether that earning funds from investing into DeFi protocols or purchasing a getaway using the Wirex card. As the first company in the world to develop a crypto-enabled card, it’s linked up to the award-winning Wirex app, meaning credit can be spent at over 80 million locations globally, in-store or online, wherever Visa or Mastercard is accepted.

Wirex Credit is set to shake up the competitive landscape, offering a near-instant loan of up to $100,000 issued in USDC, USDT and NXUSD, with a LTV of up to 80% within the Wirex app. There will be no origination fee, set up fee, or requirement for credit and affordability checks, and users can borrow up to 5 lines of credit at once. Wirex offers complete flexibility; customers can pay back at any time and are only required to pay interest for the days that the credit line is live, where credit health can easily be checked in-app.

Wirex Credit adds to the London-based company’s arsenal of DeFi to CeFi products in their ecosystem. At the end of 2021, they released the world’s first mass market non-custodial wallet, whose unique biometric access system, next-generation user experience and cross-chain compatibility with zero exchange fees has proven hugely popular with fintech fans and core crypto users. Users can easily move their loans from the Wirex app to the Wirex Wallet, allowing them to earn crypto from staking and locking after connecting it to DeFi protocols such as Nereus Finance. Wirex recently invested 5 billion of their native token, WXT into Nereus for its rewards mechanism, where Nereus has since become one of the fastest growing DeFi platforms ever.

Pavel Matveev, CEO and Co-Founder of Wirex, commented, “This is a landmark point in Wirex offering more ways for everyday users to utilise crypto, and we’ve made it as convenient and straightforward as possible for our customers to take a crypto-backed loan. Wirex’s vast ecosystem of products means there are huge opportunities for using Wirex Credit, from HODLing to debit card purchases, or using the Wirex Wallet to earn in DeFi protocols.”

In the coming months, the company plans to expand the tokens that credit are offered on and the regional availability.

Wirex Credit is subject to the T&Cs, Privacy Policy and availability by region may differ. All credit lines are provided in stablecoins. Cryptocurrency is volatile and all lending is conducted at the user’s risk

philippines-embedded-finance-market-forecast-to-reach-$6,059.5-million-by-2029

Philippines Embedded Finance Market Forecast to Reach $6,059.5 Million by 2029

 

The “Philippines Embedded Finance Business and Investment Opportunities Databook – 50+ KPIs on Embedded Lending, Insurance, Payment, and Wealth Segments – Q1 2022 Update” report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com’s offering.

The embedded finance industry is expected to grow steadily over the forecast period, recording a CAGR of 36.4% during 2022-2029. The embedded finance revenues in the Philippines is forecast to increase from US$1,080.1 million in 2022 to reach US$6,059.5 million by 2029.

In the Philippines, there has been a growth in the number of customers demanding insurance products ever since the coronavirus outbreak. This demand, coupled with the highly under-penetrated market of the Philippines, offers significant growth potential for insurtech firms in the region.

Philippines-based digital wallet providers are entering into strategic partnerships with global insurtech firms to enter the embedded insurance market. For instance, in October 2021, PayMaya, one of the leading wallet providers in the country, entered into a strategic partnership with Bolttech, a global insurtech firm, to provide more consumers with easier access to affordable micro-insurance policies.

The publisher expects a new and innovative insurtech platform to emerge over the next four to eight quarters. This will further drive innovation and competition in the Philippines’ embedded insurance industry.

The embedded lending market also recorded strong growth in the last six quarters. Domestic fintech companies are collaborating with foreign technology companies to rope in new technologies in the Philippines financial industry. For instance, UBX Philippines Corporation collaborated with Chinese technology giant Alibaba Cloud. The collaboration is aimed to accelerate financial inclusion in the country by harnessing digital technologies. The collaboration is expected to attract the attention of more foreign companies. Consequently, more foreign companies are expected to enter the country, resulting in growth in embedded lending technologies.

The publisher expects increased collaboration and joint ventures to emerge over the next four to eight quarters. This will further drive innovation and competition in the Philippines’ embedded lending industry.

Before the global pandemic, e-commerce and digital services were not readily accessible in the Philippines. However, with the growing cases of the Covid-19 virus, digital services have become prevalent in the country. While some customers still prefer the traditional cash payments options, more Filipinos opt for digital payments for convenience and security reasons.

Since the coronavirus outbreak, continued growth in customers demanding embedded payments products has been witnessed. Local market players collaborate with foreign technology companies to rope in new technologies in the Philippine payments industry.

This report provides a detailed data centric analysis of market opportunity across 50+ segments in embedded finance industry covering lending, insurance, payment, and wealth sectors.

GoCardless to acquire open banking platform Nordigen, combining broad open banking connectivity with bank payment expertise

 

GoCardless, the global leader in direct bank payments, has announced its plans to acquire Nordigen, the freemium open banking data provider, as it builds on its vision to become the world’s bank payment network. GoCardless will incorporate Nordigen’s next-generation open banking connectivity — offering the widest coverage in Europe, connecting to more than 2,300 banks in 31 countries — into its account-to-account network.

The acquisition means the fintech will now provide free open banking connectivity at scale, opening up self-serve access to account information services (AIS) to everyone. In addition, its suite of premium data products help improve outcomes across a range of use cases from credit assessments to customer engagement.

The announcement is the latest move from GoCardless as it accelerates its open banking strategy. Over the past 18 months it has launched its open banking-enabled Instant Bank Pay feature across multiple markets, as well as Verified Mandates, which combines AIS with direct debit to prevent fraud. This deal will enable GoCardless to acquire in-house open banking connectivity, which it plans to build on in the near future by expanding coverage and adding new payment types such as Variable Recurring Payments.

Hiroki Takeuchi, Co-founder and CEO of GoCardless, said: “Over the past few years it’s been amazing to watch open banking grow from a trend on the horizon to a global phenomenon which has given rise to a market worth over $400 billion. We realised early on that this technology would drive bank payments for decades to come and over the last 18 months, we’ve accelerated our push into open banking as part of our vision to build the world’s bank payment network.

The Nordigen acquisition will take us to the next level. By intelligently combining free, state-of-the-art open banking connectivity with deep payment expertise, we can now offer open banking-as-a-service to any developer, partner or fintech. We believe this open access will lead to experimentation, and that will create even more compelling use cases. We’re excited to redefine what open banking can do with the talented Nordigen team now on board.”

Rolands Mesters, CEO Of Nordigen, said: “At Nordigen, our mission is to help businesses around the world adopt and utilise open banking, enabling greater financial transparency and financial inclusion. We share GoCardless’s excitement about the growth of open banking, and we’re delighted to join forces with a group of people who not only share our passion for driving game-changing innovation in financial services, but will also help us bring free open banking access to a far wider audience.”

This deal was signed on 30th June 2022 and is expected to close later in the summer. Further terms of the acquisition were not disclosed.

Petale Group introduces the members of its Strategic Council composed of eminent economists and business leaders

 

European fintech Petale, which operates innovative financial services from its digital infrastructure and democratises access to new forms of property and wealth management, is strengthening its governance with the formation of a prestigious strategic board.

In 2020, she was ranked among the 40 most inspiring French women by Forbes.

Gwenaelle Avice-Huet, a physics graduate and holding an engineering degree from the Corps des Ponts et Chaussées, is a member of Schneider Electric’s Executive Committee, Executive Director of Strategy and Sustainable Development.

The members of the strategic board all bring their experience and vision in different areas of development to efficiently cover the high demand for accountability for “entreprises à missions et impact” (French status whereby businesses commit to corporate social responsibility initiatives) and new customer uses.

“With this strategic board, we are consolidating our governance in order to accelerate our development in this new and fast growing market of asset tokenisation. As such, we will continue to create new payment, investment and asset management experiences for our customers,” Babacar N. Seck, Chairman and Founder of Petale Group.

Petale continues to deploy its technologies, automating the investment and wealth management processes. Its value proposition responds to a very open market initiated to new types of digital assets. The group is preparing to open up its financial services via its mobile application to the largest possible number of qualified investors.

After Successful Tax Season, Embedded Tax Platform April Raises $30M Series A from Fintech Veterans

 

Following a successful inaugural tax season, April (April Tax Solutions Inc.), a personal income tax platform that embeds into digital financial apps, announced today that it has raised $30M in a Series A Round. The fast-growing fintech startup has gained the attention of unicorn founders and leaders in the space, with backing from Treasury, a fintech infrastructure focused fund established by the founders of Betterment and Acorns.

In addition to Treasury, the round included participation from notable tech investors and financial leaders such as QEDNyca PartnersTeam8, Euclidean Capital and Atento Caital. The company has raised $40M since its launch in January 2022.

With $204B in overpayments returned to Americans this year and an increasingly complicated tax code, embedded tax promises to be the next essential area for disruption, and April is leading that charge. Launching at the beginning of 2022, April served thousands of American taxpayers through partnerships with several financial institutions. Propel, a mission-driven fintech company, used April’s tax platform to help its members file quickly and access their tax refunds. It took April users an average of 15 minutes to file their tax information, with 90% filing on mobile devices.

“We’re proud to partner with April as one of the few startups foTax Seasoncusing on how to make taxes easier for everyday Americans,” said Jimmy Chen, Founder and CEO of Propel. “There’s a major financial opportunity for the segment of Americans we serve to have access to the funds they need and help them put food on the table.”

April’s tax engine enables fintechs to perform tax calculations throughout the year, as data emerges. By embedding directly into a user’s banking app or website, April is able to proactively fill most information needed for tax filing, saving users time and money without adding on extra costs throughout the process.

April was co-founded by Ben Borodach, a former Deloitte fintech strategist who led corporate strategy for venture group Team8, and Daniel Marcous, the former CTO of the navigation startup Waze, which sold to Google for $1B in 2013, who later served as a lead data scientist at Google in Israel. Borodach and Marcous met through Team8 where they incubated the company. The co-founders have onboarded a team of 30 including renowned CPA Jody Padar, also known as “The Radical CPA,” to head April’s tax group.

“April’s main goal is to empower the taxpayer,” said Borodach. “By embedding tax into the banking and financial apps that folks are already using, we can drastically reduce the tension of tax filing, helping American taxpayers avoid overpayments and attain a better grasp on their overall financial picture, with the full power of the tax code at their disposal.”

April will use the new funding to expand its R&D capabilities and increase operational capacity in preparation for next tax season. “Tax is a logical extension of the modern consumer finance experience and April is well positioned to assist fintechs in bringing this capability to market,” said Jeff Cruttenden, who led the round from Treasury and previously co-founded Acorns and Say Technologies.

As part of the funding round, Lowell Putnam, a seasoned fintech infrastructure entrepreneur, will join April’s Board of Directors. Putnam was the founder of Quovo which later sold to Plaid. “Lowell’s experience pioneering modern fintech infrastructure will be invaluable to guiding April into our next phase of growth,” said Borodach.

Elias Nechachby, CFA, Icon’s Portfolio Manager said: “We are very excited by this new partnership with FundFront on the launch of MoSAIQ’s Max Sharpe certificate. Our objective is to provide investors with access to uncorrelated absolute returns by implementing a systematic and innovative investment approach.
