A new collaboration between ACE Money Transfer and Mastercard Move aims to speed up and make international remittances more convenient for customers across multiple regions. The partnership will allow ACE customers in the UK, Australia, Canada, and Europe to send money in near real-time to recipients in India, Norway, Denmark, Sweden, and Single Euro Payments Area (SEPA) countries.

By leveraging Mastercard Move’s advanced money transfer capabilities, ACE users will now have expanded options for sending and receiving funds. Depending on the destination country, beneficiaries can receive money through bank accounts, payment cards, mobile wallets, or cash payouts. The service supports six payout currencies, including Euros and Indian Rupees.

The agreement also allows ACE customers in the UK, Australia, and Europe to fund their transfers using Mastercard cards when sending money to India and SEPA countries.

ACE Money Transfer, headquartered in Manchester, serves 1.3 million customers worldwide and facilitates payments to over 100 countries. The company has been recognised for its commitment to financial accessibility and innovation, including its use of open banking technologies to improve services.

Together, we aim to foster access to essential financial services, helping communities grow through meaningful connections.”
