Nium becomes first fintech to join the blockchain-based network, enabling faster cross-border payments, added market reach, and greater transaction transparency
Nium, the leading global infrastructure for real-time cross-border payments, announced a partnership with Partior, the blockchain-based fintech for clearing and settlement at the Singapore Fintech Festival 2024. The partnership makes Nium the first fintech payment service provider (PSP) on the Partior network. Financial institutions will be able to connect with Nium via Partior for 24×7, transparent, real-time payouts, clearing, and settlement to over 100 markets worldwide. Importantly, the connection will require no additional API integration work, streamlining what historically took months of resource-intensive work.
This new partnership builds on Nium’s recent strategy to connect more networks to its real-time payments’ infrastructure. By joining the Partior network, Nium is extending its connectivity to one of the most innovative networks in the industry. Partior’s blockchain-powered platform effectively resolves longstanding inefficiencies in global payments, such as settlement delays, high costs, and limited transaction transparency. In today’s global landscape, where companies operate around the clock, effective liquidity management is essential for both corporate and financial institutions. This collaboration allows Nium to offer its clients the ability to execute real-time multi-currency payments and Payments versus Payments (PvP) settlements, further simplifying access to its global payments network.
