Instarem enables real-time payments to Malaysia

Workers can save money from foreign exchange fees and transportation costs.

Singapore-headquartered payments fintech Instarem has enabled users to send money to Malaysia.

Instarem’s new real-time payment option enables Malaysians in Singapore to send cash in the safety of their homes in the Lion City, avoiding the hefty foreign exchange fees or the roundtrip travel costs to Johor Bahru that Malaysian workers often trek in order to avoid the fees.

“Enabling instant payments for Malaysian ringgit transfers is a very important step in helping our Malaysian users send money to their families without having to worry about anything,” said Michael Minassian, head of consumer business, APAC at Instarem. “Our business was founded to help remove complexities around money and we continue to strive to do so.”

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
