Share This Post

TransferMate, the world’s leading provider of payment infrastructure as a service and Axletree, the leading provider of global financial connectivity and integration solutions  announced their agreement to enter a strategic alliance to enable cross border payments and receivables services across Axletree’s global and diverse client base.

Through this partnership, Axletree will integrate its financial messaging integration platform, Symmetree with TransferMate’s global payment network to provide a seamless cross border payment and receivables experience. This provides a greater level of flexibility, speed and visibility to deliver a frictionless payment experience.

The primary benefit of the TransferMate-Axletree partnership is that Axletree customers now have access via the Axletree Marketplace to an expansive international banking network that allows them to make and receive global B2B payments as easily as making a domestic funds transfer. TransferMate provides this solution in multiple currencies, faster and more securely than traditional banking methods and with complete transparency of the transaction to the point of final reconciliation. This delivers a level of confidence to its customers never experienced before, eliminates unnecessary financial risk and drives significant cost-efficiency benefits. This is made possible because TransferMate is the world’s leading B2B provider of payments infrastructure as a service. It has 4 core competencies that have been meticulously built over more than 10 years which are driving a new way of doing business. These are:

(1) the most comprehensive global licensing network that incorporates 54 currencies in every major jurisdiction around the world;

(2) the resulting banking network covering over 200 countries and jurisdictions;

(3) a world-beating compliance infrastructure to proactively mitigate and manage risk; and finally,

(4) TransferMate’s advanced API technology.

Leveraging these 4 core competencies, Transfermate offers a global payments infrastructure that results in significant financial and efficiency gains across the entire payment journey for both suppliers and buyers.

“Our unrivaled licensing and banking networks are setting new standards of security, transparency and speed for B2B cross-border payments,” said Sinead Fitzmaurice, CEO of TransferMate Global Payments – a subsidiary of the CluneTech Group. “We are delighted to bring these industry-leading capabilities to this new strategic partnership with Axletree, helping them deliver best-in-class connectivity and a new level of international payments experience to their clients in Latin America and across The Caribbean.”

For over 20 years, Axletree has provided many of the top financial institutions and corporates across 3 major continents with secure and innovative financial messaging solutions using the SWIFT network to facilitate straight through processing and interoperability.  In many cases, regional challenges related to correspondent banking networks has resulted in friction being introduced to the payment lifecycle, thus making it cumbersome and cost-prohibitive. Given Axletree’s philosophy of providing peace of mind to our clients, the company realized that together with TransferMate, they would be able to address these challenges and provide value-added benefits within the payment lifecycle, including speed of execution, end to end tracking and visibility.

“Following our successful brand launch in September 2021 and in line with our strategy to provide our clients with the best-in-class financial connectivity and integration experience, we identified TransferMate as being a key strategic partner in helping us to achieve this goal,” said Andrew O’Garro, Head of Strategic Innovation at Axletree. “When we looked at the profiles of both our companies, we saw many synergies that makes this partnership a no-brainer and a win-win for our clients. The challenges that exist in many countries related to correspondent banking and the heavy friction of moving funds internationally are addressed through TransferMate’s global network. Our expertise in connecting our clients to global market infrastructures and networks allows us to seamlessly integrate with TransferMate’s global payment network which covers 160 countries in 134 currencies. We are excited about this partnership and see this continuing to grow in the near future.”
