tmw founder and managing director Vinay Kalantri said: “With this latest launch, tmw has marked a significant step towards greater security and speed, and has thus laid the ground work for future innovative products in the prepaid card segment.
“This launch also further augments our product offering by providing smarter solutions such as digital payout disbursements and open-loop solutions to new segments of our business.”
