Ripple’s Partners dLocal and ShopeePay Expand to Southeast Asia

• dLocal expands partnership with ShopeePay, reaching 200 million new e-commerce customers across four Southeast Asian countries.
• Ripple’s network strengthens in Asia as dLocal, Tranglo, and Instarem enhance cross-border payment solutions.

The most recent developments from Ripple’s ecosystem show considerable growth for its users and partners in the Southeast Asian e-commerce business. dLocal, a RippleNet-based payment platform since 2017, has announced an expanded relationship with ShopeePay, allowing its merchants to accept payments in four new markets: Thailand, Malaysia, Indonesia, and the Philippines.

This move significantly expands access to an estimated 200 million additional e-commerce buyers in Asia. The fact that ShopeePay is powered by Tranglo, another Ripple partner, adds to Ripple’s regional prominence.

dLocal Expands with ShopeePay Thailand, Adding Payout Solutions

Furthermore, dLocal does not limit itself to pay-ins. In conjunction with ShopeePay Thailand, the company is expanding its offerings to include merchant payout options. This dual functionality considerably improves the seamlessness of payment processing, allowing businesses to receive payments more swiftly while also handling disbursements with greater simplicity.

This cooperation underscores dLocal’s efforts to reestablish its footprint following a period of setbacks, demonstrating renewed growth and a commitment to growing its services in emerging regions.

Previously, CNF reported that Tranglo expanded its services to Brunei, with the goal of providing migrant workers with faster and more secure remittance choices using Ripple’s blockchain technology.

This expansion highlights the growing importance of blockchain in improving cross-border payment solutions, and Tranglo’s efforts to integrate Ripple’s technology demonstrate the potential efficiencies it may bring to financial transactions.

As we previously highlighted, Instarem, another Ripple affiliate, has also made considerable gains in cross-border payment procedures by integrating Apple Pay with their Amaze card.

This integration improves the convenience of contactless payments across borders via mobile devices, demonstrating how Ripple’s network of partners is always growing to provide cutting-edge solutions for a wide range of payment requirements in the digital era.
