To ensure best-in-class payments service, TransferMate will open and staff an office in Mexico City. Customers in Mexico will now be able to use TransferMate’s leading payments technology to make and receive single or mass international transfers same day/next day with full tracking and zero wire fees. With a portfolio of payment licences spanning 51 U.S. states/territories, Canada, Europe, U.K., Asia, Australia and now Mexico, TransferMate’s regulated global payment technology cuts out the chain of intermediate handlers associated with traditional bank payment routes, thereby solving complex payment challenges for companies.

Sinead Fitzmaurice, CEO of TransferMate – a Taxback Group company, said: "At TransferMate, we aim to deliver the most efficient payments process possible for our customers. This move is another major progression in our strategic mission to provide customers and partners with a regulated payments technology infrastructure that is not only able to bypass interbank rails but also ensures end-to-end control over the corridor, resulting in lower cost, higher speed and greater reconcilement benefits for our customers."

This news follows a successful 2019 for TransferMate, when the company gained regulatory approval in six zones, including Hong Kong, Singapore and Dubai.
