Ripple Partners With FOMO Pay To Bolster XRP-Powered ODL In Singapore

Ripple has forged a collaboration with Singapore-based major payments institution FOMO Pay, to boost cross-border treasury flows using XRP powered On-Demand Liquidity [ODL] initiative and achieve affordable and instant settlement in EUR and USD globally.

The blockchain firm also claimed that b XRP, ODL eliminates the need for costly pre-funded destination accounts.

Besides Ripple Labs’ products for payment settlement, asset exchange, and remittance systems, it also provides services for international money transfers and security transfers through a network of banks and financial institutions.

Ripple’s ODL Is Touted To Solve Payment Bottlenecks

Speaking on the new launch, Brooks Entwistle, SVP and Managing Director at Ripple stated,

With the Asia Pacific region teeming with opportunities to solve existing silos and inefficiencies with payments, we’re seeing many forward-looking financial institutions clamoring for the next evolution of payment infrastructures – and notably based on crypto and blockchain technologies. This is why we are so excited to launch this crypto-enabled treasury management use case for ODL with innovative customers like FOMO Pay.
