Wing Cambodia Limited Specialised Bank, a mobile banking services provider in Cambodia, has joined forces with WorldRemit to introduce instant money transfer service in the country.

Through the service, Cambodians in more than 50 countries including the US, France, Australia and Canada will be able to make remittances to over one million Wing accounts.

Recipients can receive the funds in US dollars or Cambodian riel from their Wing accounts or from Wing Cash Xpress locations across the country.

Wing CEO Jojo Malolos said: “This partnership brings international money transfer to the next level — sending money anywhere in Cambodia from Cambodians anywhere in the world online.

“We are bridging the gap and making it much easier for our customers abroad to send their money home to their loved ones, who can collect instantly through a Wing Account or cash out at any of our 5,000 Wing Cash Xpress agents nationwide.”

WorldRemit founder and CEO Ismail Ahmed added: “We are delighted to be partnering with a company that has pioneered mobile banking services in Cambodia, and ensured that millions of Cambodians across the country can access financial services at the touch of a button.”
