Aspire, a leading all-in-one finance platform for modern businesses, is expanding its mission to create a fully connected financial ecosystem. The company has now launched fast and low-cost international payments in Hong Kong.
This new feature is powered by Wise Platform, the global payment system used by banks and enterprises. With this integration, Aspire customers can send money in more than 40 currencies — to places like Singapore, the US, Australia, Japan, and Korea — directly from the Aspire platform.
Aspire and Wise Platform first partnered in Singapore in 2019, and the collaboration has worked very well. Now, Aspire is bringing this same cross-border payment experience to its customers in Hong Kong.
With this upgrade, Hong Kong users can enjoy fast international transfers and low fees, all within the same Aspire platform they already use for payments, cards, and managing expenses.
“Cross-border payments are the backbone of global commerce, and for businesses in Hong Kong, speed and cost efficiency can make all the difference,” said Andrea Baronchelli, CEO and Co-founder of Aspire. “By embedding Wise’s infrastructure directly into Aspire, we’ve created a truly connected experience — where cards, payments, expenses, and global transfers all work seamlessly together. This expansion to our partnership is a major step toward our vision of building the most connected financial operating system for modern businesses.”
“In a major hub, like Hong Kong, where companies operate across borders every day, offering a best in class cross-border experience is essential and a key requirement for any business looking for a financial partner. Aspire has been a key partner since 2019 and enabling them to expand and offer the same cross-border experience across their merchants demonstrates the value of Wise Platform. We’re proud to be providing Aspire with the speed, transparency, and end-to-end payments control their customers expect from a partner,” said Samarth Bansal, APAC General Manager, Wise Platform.
