From Cross-Border Remittance to Financial Asset Management: BiyaPay Explores a New Path for Global Asset Allocation

Published

on

SINGAPORE, July 28, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Recently, BiyaPay officially launched multilingual services to provide global users with a more localized product experience. For a platform focused on cross-border fund flows and multi-asset allocation, multilingual capabilities are not only an improvement to the user interface, but also a way to further lower the barriers for users in different regions to understand and use financial services.

From cross-border remittance and currency exchange to U.S. and Hong Kong stock investing, cryptocurrency trading, wealth management, and global payments, BiyaPay’s product scenarios are covering the real needs of an increasingly global user base. As its users become more international, the platform needs to address not only whether it can provide products, but also whether users can understand product rules, complete operational processes, and manage cross-border funds more efficiently in a language they are familiar with.

Against this backdrop, the launch of BiyaPay’s multilingual services has become an important product update in its globalization strategy, also signaling BiyaPay’s transition from cross-border payments toward a global one-stop asset allocation platform. Remittance and payment services are only the starting point of BiyaPay’s service to users, not the destination. What users truly need is not just to complete a remittance, but to manage cross-border funds more efficiently and further connect with global financial investment opportunities.

From Zero to One: Cross-Border Remittance as BiyaPay’s Starting Point

When BiyaPay first entered the market, it chose cross-border remittance and payments, a seemingly traditional financial scenario that has long been marked by persistent pain points. For international students, overseas workers, and freelancers in particular, cross-border remittance is often a high-frequency need, yet traditional channels are not always efficient enough.

In BiyaPay’s view, cross-border remittance is far from a fully solved market. In the early stages, users conducting cross-border fund transfers still faced high fees, uncertain arrival times, complicated processes, cumbersome document reviews, and a lack of exchange rate transparency. BiyaPay did not set out to build a complex platform at the beginning. Instead, it focused on helping users complete cross-border remittances more conveniently and at a lower cost.

In its early days, the BiyaPay team focused on three priorities: reducing remittance costs, improving fund arrival efficiency, and simplifying online operations. Compared with the fixed fees and longer settlement cycles commonly seen in traditional bank wire transfers, BiyaPay aimed to provide users with a more flexible fund transfer experience through digital accounts and online processes.

Building from zero was not easy. The greatest early challenge for the BiyaPay team was not the technology itself, but how to establish user trust. Cross-border remittance is a fund-related business. What users care about most is not how many features a platform has, but whether their money can arrive safely and on time. For this reason, BiyaPay invested heavily in obtaining financial licenses, improving product experience, enhancing fund arrival feedback, and strengthening risk control.

From its first group of users, BiyaPay grew primarily through real usage scenarios. International students used it to manage living expenses and rent; overseas workers used it to send money to their families; cross-border users used it to complete multi-currency fund transfers. As these use cases continued to accumulate, BiyaPay’s cross-border remittance business gradually evolved from a single product into a global one-stop asset allocation platform.

From zero to one, the first thing BiyaPay achieved was turning cross-border remittance, once a single-purpose product, into a foundational service that users can rely on continuously. For BiyaPay, this was both the starting point of its journey and an important foundation for serving millions of global users in the future.

Starting from Cross-Border Payments, BiyaPay Moves Toward Multi-Asset Financial Services

Global financial services are entering a stage of multi-asset convergence. U.S. and Hong Kong stocks remain key markets for global investors, while stablecoins such as USDT are becoming important tools for cross-border fund transfers and digital asset management. At the same time, foreign exchange, commodities, wealth management, and U Card payments are playing an increasingly important role in global users’ asset allocation.

Cross-border remittance helped BiyaPay validate users’ real demand for global fund mobility, while the expansion of its product matrix came from users’ next set of needs after completing a remittance.

While serving early remittance users, BiyaPay found that once funds completed cross-border transfers, they often did not remain idle in a single account. Some users converted USDT into U.S. dollars or Hong Kong dollars for U.S. and Hong Kong stock investments; some continued to allocate funds to cryptocurrencies, wealth management products, or foreign exchange assets; others used U Card products to pay for AI tool subscriptions and overseas e-commerce purchases.

“Payments are the starting point, but users also need a full suite of financial asset services after their funds begin to move,” BiyaPay’s CEO said. “When we saw users repeatedly switching between platforms for remittance, currency exchange, investing, and payments, we realized that BiyaPay needed to do more than provide remittance and payment functions.”

Following this fund flow path, BiyaPay began expanding from cross-border remittance and payments into more asset service scenarios. Today, the platform has gradually covered U.S. stocks, Hong Kong stocks, cryptocurrencies, wealth management, commodities, and U Card services, aiming to provide users with a financial experience that spans fund transfers, asset trading, flexible wealth management, and global payments.

In the U.S. and Hong Kong stock investment scenario, users can access zero-commission U.S. stock trading, as BiyaPay seeks to lower the barrier to global financial markets. In the cryptocurrency scenario, users can trade spot and futures with zero transaction fees. In wealth management, BiyaPay provides users with more flexible options for managing idle assets, with yields that are higher than many comparable platforms in the market.

BiyaPay’s product expansion is not simply about adding more features. It is an extension based on users’ asset flow paths. Users should not have to switch back and forth between multiple platforms just to complete one asset allocation process. BiyaPay aims to become an entry point for users to connect different assets and different scenarios, reducing the operational costs caused by cross-platform switching.

Starting from cross-border payments, BiyaPay has evolved into a multi-asset financial services platform covering U.S. and Hong Kong stocks, cryptocurrencies, wealth management, commodities, and U Card scenarios.

BiyaPay’s Next Destination: A Global One-Stop Asset Allocation Platform

Future financial services will not be limited to a single market, a single currency, or a single asset class. BiyaPay’s CEO once said, “What users need is one account that connects global stocks, digital assets, and foreign exchange markets, allowing funds to move more freely across different assets, currencies, and scenarios.”

Traditional financial markets such as U.S. stocks, Hong Kong stocks, foreign exchange, and commodities are becoming increasingly connected with digital financial tools such as stablecoins, crypto assets, and on-chain payments. For users, asset allocation is no longer a single action such as “buying stocks” or “buying crypto,” but a complete chain involving remittance, currency exchange, trading, wealth management, payments, and risk management.

As traditional finance and digital finance continue to converge, BiyaPay is seeking to improve the connectivity between global stocks, digital assets, foreign exchange, wealth management, and payment scenarios by combining Web2 and Web3 capabilities. On the Web2 side, BiyaPay connects mature financial and consumer scenarios such as U.S. and Hong Kong stocks, foreign exchange, commodities, and U Card payments. On the Web3 side, the platform provides users with more flexible fund pathways through stablecoins such as USDT, digital asset trading, and on-chain fund transfer capabilities.

BiyaPay hopes to break down the barriers between assets and allow value to flow more freely. Whether users hold fiat currencies, stocks, or digital assets, the platform should help them connect and allocate assets more efficiently.

Based on this vision, BiyaPay is seeking to redefine the relationship between users and global assets. In the past, users who wanted to allocate across different assets often had to switch between banks, brokerages, exchanges, wallets, and payment tools. In the future, BiyaPay aims to connect cross-border payments, stock trading, digital assets, foreign exchange, wealth management, and global consumption through one account, enabling users to complete asset movement and management at a lower cost.

Starting from cross-border remittance and payments, and expanding into U.S. and Hong Kong stocks, digital assets, wealth management, foreign exchange, commodities, and global payments, BiyaPay is moving from a single payment tool toward a one-stop financial services platform covering cross-border fund flows and multi-asset management. BiyaPay’s mission is to make global asset allocation simpler and fund flows more efficient. BiyaPay’s next destination is to build a global one-stop asset allocation platform for users.

ICAC hosts professional anti-corruption training for Saudi Arabian’s anti-corruption authority

Published

on

By

HONG KONG, July 28, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — The Oversight and Anti-Corruption Authority of Saudi Arabia (Nazaha) arranged 60 graft fighters to Hong Kong for a 10-day professional anti-corruption course at the ICAC’s Hong Kong International Academy Against Corruption (HKIAAC). This delegation sets two ICAC’s new records in the international training arena – becoming the largest international training course in terms of participants, and the largest number of participants from a single overseas anti-corruption agency in a course.

Speaking at the opening ceremony of the development programme, ICAC Commissioner, Mr Woo Ying-ming, said that the ICAC and the Nazaha are close graft-fighting partners for years, with collaboration further intensified after the two parties entered into a Memorandum of Understanding in 2024. Leveraging his practical exchange with Nazaha officials conducted in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia last year, the ICAC and the Nazaha earlier piloted a new attachment programme with two Nazaha officers attached to the ICAC for one year, enabling them to gain first-hand experience of Hong Kong’s anti-corruption practices, bringing international anti-corruption collaboration to a new phase.

“This ICAC’s largest training course is of utmost significance. I anticipate this practical programme, tailor-made for Nazaha officers, would not only connect participants to the real world of fighting corruption, but also unlock their skills and broaden their new perspectives. Participants can bring back Hong Kong’s anti-graft practices and long experience in upholding integrity in commercial field to Saudi Arabia, enhancing its graft-fighting work and reinforcing the nation’s Vision 2030 initiative,” Mr Woo added.

Mr Woo also highlighted one of the key features of the course – A study visit for all Saudi Arabian participants in Qianhai area in Shenzhen. “Shenzhen is one of the fastest-growing cities in Mainland China, and it is also a hub of technology and innovation. Through this visit, participants will gain first-hand experience of the latest anti-corruption and technology developments in our Motherland, and see how technology is being used to enhance probity and to inspire new ideas to integrity development,” Mr Woo added.

The programme highlights professional development, while experienced ICAC officers will illustrate to participants the investigation techniques and challenges in combating corruption in government, public bodies and private sector. Topics including financial investigation, forensic accounting and asset recovery will also be covered. The ICAC’s information technology experts will introduce in-depth investigation techniques in computer forensics and cryptocurrency investigation. On the preventive education front, the ICAC’s latest strategies on corruption prevention through digitalisation, as well as publicity and community education will be shared. 

The course also brings participants out of the classroom to learn about the comprehensive regulatory system in the city by visiting multiple major local agencies, including the Hong Kong Monetary Authority, the Hong Kong Jockey Club and Hong Kong Science and Technology Parks Corporation, gaining a deeper understanding of how anti-corruption and integrity values are well-incorporated into different fronts in the local society.

The programme also gathers expert speakers from the Department of Justice and the Hong Kong Police Force covering topics including transnational legal cooperation and upholding integrity in the Police Force respectively.

Also attending the opening ceremony were Director-General of the Department of Treaty and Law of the Office of the Commissioner of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the People’s Republic of China in the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region, Counselor Zhou Qian, and Vice-Consul of the Royal Consulate General of Saudi Arabia in the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region Mr Mushari Almudarra.

Unity IAP 5.4 brings direct-to-consumer commerce into the Unity Dashboard, with Coda as a payment provider, making it easier for developers to launch branded webstores and grow revenue beyond the app stores.

SINGAPORE, July 28, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Coda, a global leader in digital monetization and distribution, announced that its payment platform is now integrated with Unity’s direct-to-consumer (D2C) solution now available through Unity IAP 5.4, giving game developers a faster path to building and scaling a D2C business.

With Codapay, Unity developers can accept more than 400 local and global payment methods across 80+ markets. That means reaching more paying players, improving payment access in markets where cards are not the default, and expanding into new markets without building payment integrations country by country.

This means game developers can:

Reach more paying players with the local payment methods they already use and trustGrow direct revenue across 80+ markets through a single global integrationLaunch in new markets faster without integrating and managing payment methods one by oneScale with Coda, managing payments, tax, fraud, and regulatory compliance through its Merchant of Record services

“Game studios should be able to sell to players anywhere in the world,” said Shane Happach, Chief Executive Officer of Coda. “Coda has spent more than a decade building the payment reach and local infrastructure to make that possible. Bringing Coda into Unity’s D2C commerce solution gives studios a faster way to reach more paying players, grow direct revenue, and expand into new markets.”

The launch builds on the partnership announced between Coda and Unity earlier this year, bringing Coda’s global payments infrastructure directly into the tools developers already use to manage their games.

For studios looking to grow direct revenue, payment reach matters. Players are more likely to buy when they can pay in the ways they know and use every day. With Coda, Unity developers can now reach players across some of the world’s largest and fastest-growing games markets through a simple integration.
