Singapore – 02 December 2021 – FOMO Pay, the leading Singapore one-stop payment solution provider, today embarked on a partnership with Luxembourg-headquartered licenced bank Banking Circle, to enable Collection on Behalf of (COBO) and Payment on Behalf of (POBO) services for FOMO Pay’s corporate clients in APAC.

Banking Circle is a Payments bank committed to building a local clearing network for all major currencies, to deliver the fastest, lowest cost payments, with no hidden fees for the beneficiary. It provides a suite of unique and award-winning banking solutions, including multi-currency banking accounts and Virtual IBANs, bank connections for local clearing and cross border payments, all underpinned by market leading compliance and security.

Empowered by Banking Circle’s COBO and POBO capability, FOMO Pay’s customers are able to have immediate and accurate identification of underlying payers and payees when processing international and domestic multi-currency B2B transactions. With this transparency and expedition, FOMO Pay’s clients will benefit from reduced payment and invoice reconciliation and processing time. COBO and POBO also reduces opportunity for fraud, facilitates optimised treasury forecasting and credit risk monitoring, and enhances visibility on individual business units’ cash flow. Anti-Money Laundering (AML) and Know Your Customer (KYC) compliance risks are also reduced with enhanced visibility.

Mr. Zack Yang, Co-founder at FOMO Pay said: “Our enduring commitment to providing a comprehensive and robust one-stop payments solution has brought us to this partnership with Banking Circle. Banking Circle’s industry-leading COBO and POBO expertise will enable our clients to focus more on their business and spend less time on reconciliation and monitoring. We look forward to deepening this partnership as we continue to reinvent the payment experience for our customers.”
