Reap, a Hong Kong-based payment technology provider, announced Friday that it has received an in-principle approval (IPA) from the Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS) for its application of the major payment institution (MPI) license for its Singapore entity, Reap Singapore.

Reap said in a statement that obtaining the IPA marks a significant milestone for Reap.

It noted Reap is committed to regulatory excellence while continuously enhancing its capabilities and presence in Singapore and the broader Asia Pacific region.

While the IPA marks a critical step forward, it said Reap Singapore remains steadfast in meeting the required conditions for the MPI License.

It also said Reap is equally committed to dedicating the necessary resources to support and assist Reap Singapore in achieving this goal.

Together, Reap and Reap Singapore will continue to refine its compliance standards and beyond, ensuring it delivers enhanced value and trusted solutions to Singapore and the broader Asia Pacific (APAC) customers, it added.

“At Reap, compliance has always been paramount, not only to safeguard our users but also as a fundamental pillar for growth,

“Receiving this IPA from the MAS, a globally renowned financial regulator, is incredibly motivating and will be a key driver of secure growth in the region,” stated Kevin Kang, Co-Founder of Reap.

“It fuels our enthusiasm to continue collaborating closely with regulatory bodies to shape a secure and efficient money movement across the region,

“Reap is also committed to building a strong payment service,” he added.

According to the statement, Singapore is integral to Reap’s mission of enhancing global money movement.

Its high regulatory standards and commitment to foster sustainable innovation align seamlessly with Reap’s vision for the future of payment services.

This alignment empowers Reap to drive secure and efficient financial flows while delivering exceptional value to its clients and partners.

Reap group is a global payment technology provider that enables financial connectivity and access for businesses worldwide.

By bridging disparate economies, merging technological divides, and connecting key financial players, the firm is transforming the financial landscape into a more interconnected and interoperable space for efficient money movement.
