DBS and Stripe partner to capture Asian cross border payments

Stripe will leverage DBS’ digital banking capabilities and DBS will explore the use of the Striple platform.

DBS and Stripe have announced a strategic partnership with the goal of accelerating agentic commerce growth and cross-border payments in Asia.

The two organisations aim to help businesses collect, move, and manage funds more seamlessly across markets, combining DBS’ banking capabilities and pan-Asia connectivity with Stripe's programmable financial services, according to an announcement on 27 August 2026.

Stripe will be able to leverage DBS’ digital banking capabilities to provide merchants on its platform enhanced cross-border payment capabilities, using DBS’ money movement and cash management solutions.

DBS, meanwhile, will explore using Stripe’s global platform and embedded finance solutions to expand its cross-border network and enable its institutional clients to connect with more customers worldwide.

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.
