Payscout, one of the global leaders of payment innovation, is elated to announce its latest integration with Optimus. Payscout is known as one of the global leaders of payment innovation. The company has provided specialized processing solutions for vertical-specific industries such as Healthcare, Accounts Receivable Management (ARM), and Enterprise merchants. Optimus is known for its comprehensive cloud-based collections and recovery software platform from Telrock Systems.

Telrock Systems is a global technology provider for modern recovery software solutions and cloud-based collections for creditors and 3rd-party consumer collections organizations to improve their functionality and advance business capabilities.

Payscout's Paywire platform will be a significant ARM-centric gateway for the users of Optimus as they will now have direct access to seamlessly integrated payment processing through API. The enhanced integration will serve the purpose of providing advanced omnichannel payment capabilities for debit, credit, HAS, and ACH in a secure and PCI-compliant environment.

In addition, the new Paywire platform now offers the users of Optimus access to enhanced service offerings from Payscout. The offerings would be programs with a proven record of increasing collection rates and boosting revenue and 360° Fee-Free Payments and First-Party Biller (FPB). Fee-Free Payments and First-Party Biller (FPB) is a service offering for agencies to their clients (BPO or EBO) to assist on receivables before assignment for collection. FPB generally reduces the impact on clients and systems during data transfer and controls the entire process.

360° Fee-Free Payments is a fully compliant Convenience Fee solution that enables merchants to eliminate or significantly reduce their payment processing fees by charging consumers at a flat price for the convenience of accepting card-not-present (CNP) payments online or via mobile phone.

These are trying times for businesses in the collections and ARM space. With many businesses facing reduced budgets, limited inventories, and increased regulations, there is a real need for an efficient and compliant payment solution that reduces costs and increases revenue. The integration between Paywire and Optimus provides further proof of the commitment between Payscout and Telrock Systems to provide innovative collection solutions that meet the needs of our customers."

Newswire | May 22, 2023

MODIFI, a global commerce platform for business payments, announced a partnership with leading global payments and financial platform Airwallex to launch a streamlined, innovative, and secure solution for transferring money across multiple regions. Leveraging Airwallex's global payments and financial infrastructure, MODIFI has created Global Account Solutions, a payment tool which facilitates a seamless payment integration for exporters in China and large buyers around the world, by addressing the complexities and high costs of cross-border payments and invoice financing. Cross-border payments are associated with high costs, longer payment terms, limited access, and lack of transparency. Banks, which are typically dominant in global business payments, tend to favor larger companies, leaving emerging SMEs struggling to find affordable and flexible global payment services. As a result, there is a demand for efficient and cost-effective cross-border payment solutions. MODIFI has embedded Airwallex's payment infrastructure to provide Global Account Solutions for exporters around the globe who are seeking sustainable growth in their international business. This solution simplifies the financing and collection process for buyers and sellers across multiple regions, including North America, Europe, and Asia. MODIFI Global Account Solution is designed to address the financing pain points of B2B exporters, as well as meet the cash flow needs of e-commerce marketplace vendors and non-traditional businesses. MODIFI supports major platforms such as Walmart, JD Worldwide, Amazon, Wayfair, Tmall International, Coupang, and Temu. By optimizing cashflow, bridging financing gaps, and providing support for Chinese exporters, MODIFI facilitates cross-border e-commerce platforms. Wenlong Huang, General Manager of MODIFI Greater China, said, "The innovative solution with Airwallex builds convenient cross-border payment and financing services for Chinese exporters and helps them to speed up the working capital cycle and increase profit margins." Commenting on the partnership, Pranav Sood, GM, EMEA at Airwallex, said, "Moving money around the world can be incredibly restrictive, time-consuming and costly. Airwallex's global financial infrastructure coupled with MODIFI's digital commerce payments platform, will simplify the way businesses can grow across borders. We're excited to work with MODIFI and further empower businesses to reach their global ambitions." Sven Brauer, COO of MODIFI, said, "We're offering this solution not only to Chinese exporters but also to exporters outside of China. It eases trade bottlenecks and tackles liquidity issues, benefiting exporters struggling with financing and collection solutions." About MODIFI MODIFI was founded with one aim - to make trade seamless and transparent for businesses around the globe. We are challenging the status quo for exporters and importers alike. With MODIFI they gain full control of cross-border trade -- against all odds of supply chain disruptions. How? We offer a one stop platform for business payments and trade management.
