Many Chinese online merchants struggle with the payment collection and payout process. Looking to simplify this, Currencycloud, the company simplifying business in a multi-currency world, and Pyvio (Hong Kong), the fintech building ‘Glocal’ financial services infrastructure, have announced a new partnership.
The partnership will allow Pyvio to leverage Currencycloud technology to collect and pay funds in over 180 countries and more than 30 currencies, including CNH and CNY. In turn, this will make the cross-border payments process not only more efficient but more cost-effective too.
The impact of the partnership will especially be seen in emerging regions. Specifically, those where infrastructure is not well-developed and ensuring compliance in payments can be challenging in a complex regulatory landscape.

By partnering with Currencycloud, Pyvio aims to build on its underlying business strategy of leveraging best-in-class partnerships with other licensed financial institutions to address payment challenges and provide a bespoke service for each merchant according to their specific needs and preferences.
