Tribe Payments & Finmo form new partnership to unleash B2B payments across Asia and Europe

Strategic alliance will deliver integrated treasury and payment services to banks and fintechs across high-growth markets

London, UK, and Singapore. 29 May 2024: Tribe Payments and Finmo are delighted to announce a new strategic partnership, designed to deliver integrated, seamless, end-to-end payment and treasury services to banking and fintech clients across key growth markets, notably in Asia-Pacific and Europe.

The partnership will maximise the power of Tribe’s issuer and acquirer processing platform in conjunction with Finmo’s fast-scaling treasury & financial management platform, which is licensed to move and manage money across 180 countries. 

Market knowledge: Local meets global

Founded in 2018 as an issuer and acquirer processor, Tribe has evolved its payment platform to give customers the power to deliver frictionless, safe customer experiences at any and every point of the entire transaction flow, enabling merchants, banks, fintechs, issuers, and acquirers to easily access a full ecosystem of products, allowing them to build, customise, and launch innovative solutions quickly, without sacrificing quality.

Headquartered in London, and with offices across Europe, Tribe is uniquely positioned as an issuer and acquirer processor globally connected to Mastercard, Visa, American Express, UnionPay International, Discover and JCB - offering clients unrivalled global connectivity through just one integration.

The new partnership also signifies the latest strengthening of Tribe’s strategic expansion into Asia-Pacific, having opened its new regional HQ in Singapore in October 2024. Just as Tribe will look to leverage Finmo’s regional expertise, they will also seek to empower Finmo with its own European knowledge and footprint

Founded in Singapore in 2021, Finmo’s all-in-one Treasury Operating System offers real-time payment capabilities, cash flow visibility, FX risk management, compliance automation and liquidity optimisation.

Finmo holds an MPI (Major Payment Institution) licence from the Singaporean authorities, and is committed to expanding globally. Its established regional connectivity will enable Tribe to instantly access local payment schemes and domestic settlement rails in key markets such as Singapore, Malaysia, Vietnam, Indonesia, Australia and New Zealand.

This will further supercharge our money movement offerings across Asia-Pacific and Europe. The partnership underlines our shared goal of delivering seamless, best in class, secure payment services to clients in both card and non-card environments.

"Tribe and Finmo have many shared attributes – notably offering developer-first infrastructure that supports easy integration – and we will both be focusing on high-growth sectors including cross-border B2B and consumer spending flows.”                                                           

David Hanna, CEO of Finmo (pictured left), added: “We’re thrilled to be partnering with Tribe Payments, a move that truly symbolises ‘East meets West’ in the fintech world. Like Tribe, we have grown rapidly in a short space of time in our own region, and the time has come to make a more concerted effort to spread our wings further.

“Tribe will enable us to offer card issuing and acquiring solutions to AP and European markets; whilst we will swiftly enable Tribe to serve new clients, increasing their AP footprint. It’s a hugely exciting moment for both companies.”
