SGX-listed pawnbroker Maxi-Cash has announced that it will be powering its neobanking service, MaxiPay, with fintech company MatchMove.

MaxiPay is a personal mobile e-wallet that comes with a virtual account. The account also comes with a prepaid MatchMove-enabled Mastercard-branded virtual and physical card.

The service is said to improve the end-to-end engagement for consumers to remit their money.

With MaxiPay, Maxi-Cash users will now be able to top-up and transfer out money in real time. They will also be able to spend via their prepaid virtual cards and perform domestic FAST transfer. International remittances will also be cheaper with the service.

“As an innovative leader in the pawnbroking industry, Maxi-Cash aspires to provide access to greater demographics by leveraging fintech providers like MatchMove, which enable us to offer neobanking. Providing convenience and meeting short-term financial needs of our customers have been core to the growth of Maxi-Cash,” says Ng Kean Seen, CEO of Maxi-Cash.
