OwlTing Expands Integration with MoneyGram for Global USDC Stablecoin On/Off-Ramp

Published

on

TAIPEI, Dec. 3, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — OwlTing Group (“Company”), a global blockchain fintech company, today announced that its unhosted digital wallet solution, OwlPay® Wallet Pro (the “Wallet”) has integrated with MoneyGram International Inc. (“MoneyGram”), a leading global fintech company that connects the world’s communities, to enhance the Wallet’s bankless on and off-ramp capabilities for seamless conversions between fiat currencies and USDC stablecoin.

Through this integration, OwlPay® Wallet Pro now offers its users the functionality to cash-in from local fiat currencies to USDC stablecoin in over 30 countries[1] globally across nearly 50,000 MoneyGram locations. The Wallet users will also be able to cash-out from USDC stablecoin to fiat currencies in over 170 countries at more than 375,000 MoneyGram locations. This integration is powered by MoneyGram Access™, the first-of-its-kind global on/off-ramp service for digital asset wallets.

OwlPay® Wallet Pro also welcomes a significant update. It has moved all individual wallets to the unhosted wallet model, allowing users most access to their passphrases. This enhances user security and accessibility. The updated Wallet is now available for iOS and Android on Apple’s App Store and Google Play Store.

The Company aims to address long-standing issues such as high fees, slow processing times, and limited access to traditional financial services of the cross-border remittance market and will play a vital role in providing a faster, secure, and cost-effective payment solution. While MoneyGram has reduced its average fee for traditional remittance customers to under 3%, paving the way to meet the United Nation’s 10.c target[2] to reduce the costs of migrant remittance transfers to less than 3%, the World Bank estimates the remittance industry’s global average cost to be 6.65%[3].

“We’re seeing a surge of evolving needs from businesses that utilize international payments and from immigrants that send money home to help support their loved ones,” said Darren Wang, Founder and CEO at OwlTing Group. “By integrating with MoneyGram, OwlTing will make our vision possible and better support the financial resilience in underbanked regions such as Latin America and Africa. We can enhance the utility of USDC stablecoin in helping our customers hedge volatile fiat currencies in those regions.”

“OwlTing’s approach to digital payments aligns perfectly with our mission to enable seamless and accessible financial services across borders,” said Jon Lira, Head of Partnerships at MoneyGram International Inc. “It’s been thrilling to see MoneyGram Access™ expand globally since its launch in June 2022 and enable impactful use cases across Ukraine, Colombia and more. Now, we believe OwlPay® Wallet Pro can grow exponentially through the MoneyGram network and become part of people’s daily lives.”

A Future for Bankless Payments Beyond Borders

According to third-party industry reports[4], the global remittance market was valued at $50 billion in 2023 and is projected to grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 10.5% from 2024 to 2033, highlighting the rising demand for affordable and efficient cross-border payment solutions. OwlPay® Wallet Pro aims to allow immigrant workers to transfer USDC to recipients abroad without involving bank accounts. Their recipients can hold USDC digitally in their wallets to combat inflation and exchange them for cash through MoneyGram whenever they need it.

To provide users’ peace of mind in payment transactions, OwlTing has continued to make legal compliance a cornerstone of its operation strategy. The Company announced that it is now licensed in 29 U.S. states, including the recent acquisition of a Money Transmitter License (MTL) in Utah, and it also obtained the ISO/IEC 27001 certification, underscoring its commitment to minimizing cyber risks and safeguarding users’ data.

This announcement follows OwlTing Group’s integration of its digital wallet, OwlPay® Wallet Pro, with the Stellar blockchain[5] to support USDC stablecoin in August 2024. The partnership potentially expands OwlPay®’s reach to more than 8 million accounts on the Stellar network. Combined with the new integration with MoneyGram, OwlTing now offers a compliant and scalable payment platform in the broad ecosystem that serves both U.S. and global markets.

Mili and Egnyte Partner to put Client Documents to work in Financial Advice

Published

By

The partnership brings Egnyte’s secure content platform and Mili’s AI agents together, so advice firms can deliver more comprehensive, personalized advice at scale.

SUNNYVALE, Calif., Oct. 21, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Mili, an AI platform for wealth management firms, and Egnyte, a leader in secure content collaboration, intelligence, and governance, today announced a partnership that brings Mili’s AI agents to client documents in Egnyte. Advisors work from a file or a whole client folder alongside data from the firm’s CRM, portfolio and planning systems, under each advisor’s Egnyte permissions.

Kitces Research finds that reviewing client documents is the most common way advisors use AI. Its productivity research puts a new financial plan at 15 to 40 hours of team time.

Advisors use Mili’s agents to model the tax cost of moving a client’s accounts into the firm’s strategy, weigh a rebalance against unrealized gains, summarize a bonus agreement and build a financial snapshot from a statement. The agents link answers to their sources and flag what an analysis may still need.

David Ringler, Managing Director at Onyx Bridge Wealth Group ($1.6B+ AUM), said, “Egnyte and Mili are two valuable pieces of technology in our stack, and bringing them together has changed how our practice runs. Mili’s meeting prep and planning agents have become significantly better with Egnyte data behind them.”

Chirag Gandhi, Co-Founder and CEO of Mili, said, “How many clients an advice firm can serve well has long been capped. It is set by the work of understanding each client’s financial life. Agentic AI is changing that, helping advice firms uplift client capacity by accelerating the delivery of high-quality advice.”

Kyle Blair, Director of Global Financial Services at Egnyte, said, “Egnyte helps financial services firms accelerate critical business operations by turning document-heavy tasks into faster, connected, and revenue-generating workflows. Our partnership enables Mili’s AI agents to securely access and work on customer data within Egnyte for better business outcomes.”

The integration is live for mutual customers. Building on Mili’s work with hundreds of advice firms, it aims to put a firm’s full client knowledge into its advice.
