PRNewswire
Bengaluru (Karnataka) [India], August 29: Infosys (NSE: INFY), (BSE: INFY), (NYSE: INFY), a global leader in next generation digital services and consulting, announced a strategic collaboration with Mastercard to offer financial institutions enhanced access to Mastercard Move, its portfolio of money movement capabilities.
* Strategic collaboration will streamline onboarding for financial institutions and strengthen access to Mastercard Move, Mastercard's portfolio of money movement capabilities
The solution's seamless integration with Infosys Finacle, part of EdgeVerve Systems, a wholly owned subsidiary of Infosys, will play a key role in creating an efficient pathway for financial institutions to access Mastercard Move's cross-border capabilities in a fraction of the typical implementation time and without the intensive resourcing traditionally needed for integration projects.
Mastercard Move provides direct disbursers, banks, non-bank financial institutions and their customers with fast, secure money transfer solutions, both domestically and internationally. The portfolio of solutions reaches more than 200 countries and 150+ currencies, with access to more than 95 percent of the world's banked population.
Pratik Khowala, EVP and Global Head of Transfer Solutions, Mastercard, said, "Through Mastercard Move's cutting-edge solutions, we empower individuals and organizations to move money quickly and securely across borders. The strategic collaboration with Infosys provides financial institutions with easy access to these capabilities, enabling them to facilitate fast, secure and reliable cross-border payments for their customers while enhancing control of risk, operations, costs and liquidity for themselves. Together with Infosys, we're helping financial institutions deliver the seamless digital payments experiences today's customers expect."
Anouska Ladds, Executive Vice President, Commercial & New Payment Flows, Asia Pacific, Mastercard, said, "Global remittances continue to grow, driven by migration, digitalization and economic development - especially across Asia, which accounted for nearly half of global inflows in 2024. To meet this demand, Mastercard invests in smart money movement solutions within Mastercard Move while expanding our network of collaborators, such as Infosys, to bring the benefits to a more diverse set of users. We are committed to identifying innovative ways to increase access and truly scale the reach of remittance services and our broader portfolio of commercial payments solutions."
Dennis Gada, EVP and Global Head of Banking and Financial Services, Infosys, said, "Financial institutions are prioritizing advancements in digital payment systems. The frequency of daily transactions makes it a primary touchpoint with customers -- and the key to building long-term loyalty. Consumers gravitate toward institutions that offer fast, secure and seamless transaction experiences. Our collaboration with Mastercard to enable near real-time, cross-border payments is designed to significantly improve the financial experiences of everyday customers."
