SINGAPORE, Feb. 29, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Nium, the leader in real-time cross-border payments, announced today that it is the first non-Japanese company to have secured a Type 1 Funds Transfer Service Provider (FTSP) license from the Japanese Financial Services Agency (JFSA). The Type 1 license authorizes Nium to provide a wide range of financial services, including transferring up to 50 million JPY per transaction via Zengin-Net, Japan's local payment clearing rail, to a Japanese beneficiary account.

Key Points: 
  • In 2021, an amendment to Japan's Payment Services Act lifted cross-border transfer caps for Type 1 license holders, to lower the cost of money transfers in and out of the country.
  • However, since this amendment passed, few companies have been able to meet the high standards for regulatory approval.
  • Most other non-bank entities, including Money Service Businesses, hold Type 2 licenses, which limits cross border transfers to only 1 million JPY.
  • This accomplishment aligns with Nium's commitment to redefining global financial services by providing users with unparalleled access to secure and innovative payment solutions.
