Airwallex has introduced its ‘Airwallex for Startups’ programme in Singapore, targeting the city-state’s community of more than 55,000 startups.
This initiative follows rollouts in Hong Kong and Australia and includes networking activities, mentorship opportunities with industry leaders and exclusive product offers.
Startups can also apply to win Airwallex’s SG$10,000 Level-up Business Grant to fast-track their growth.
“Startups are the backbone of innovation and progress around the world, and this programme is designed to help Singapore’s entrepreneurs achieve their ambitions, take risks on their ideas, expand their reach and continue to build their businesses beyond borders,” said Arnold Chan, general manager of Asia, Airwallex.
Joining the Airwallex for Startups programme offers Singapore-based startups a range of benefits, including waived expense management fees for six months and three per cent cashback on Airwallex Borderless Cards.
Participants can process up to SG$20,000 in fee-free payments, receive up to SG$250,000 in Google Cloud credits, and enjoy up to three months of Xero subscription. The programme also provides discounts on HubSpot subscriptions, with 30 per cent off the first year and 15 per cent off the second year.
Beyond these financial incentives, startups will gain access to valuable networking opportunities with founders and industry leaders and attend workshops covering topics from artificial intelligence to customer relationship management.
Additionally, local startups have the chance to apply for the SG$10,000 Level-up Business Grant, which aims to support their growth. Applications for the grant are open until 31 August 2024, and the winner will be announced at an event leading up to the Singapore Grand Prix.
