hyperWALLET Systems Inc., a leading provider of global payment
solutions, today announced the launch of a new online global money
transfer service, targeted at Canadian consumers and credit union
members. The new service enables individuals to quickly, easily and
cost-effectively transfer funds electronically to international bank
accounts in over thirty countries worldwide.
"When it comes to sending money internationally, we're providing
consumers with a convenient, secure and fee-friendly alternative
compared to traditional wire transfers, checks and remittance services",
states Lisa Shields, CEO of hyperWALLET Systems Inc. "We're also
opening up a new revenue stream for our financial institution partners
without requiring additional capital investment, thanks to our
platform's existing integration with leading credit union online banking
services."
To access hyperWALLET's global money transfer service, Canadians
can signup and get verified at www.hyperwallet.com,
or use the hyperWALLET link within their credit union's online
banking website. Once verified, individuals can fund their hyperWALLET
account and transfer money to destination bank accounts in over 30
countries worldwide, with many more countries slated for availability in
the coming months. The average cost of each funds transfer is only $7.00
CAD, well below the price of competing international remittance services.
"Launching electronic global bank remittances in the Canadian market is
only the first step, as we continue to expand our global financial
partner networks and implement innovative payment delivery options, such
as via the mobile handset", states Bill Crowley, VP of Product
Development. "There is immense opportunity for innovation and service
improvement in the international remittance market, and hyperWALLET
can cost-effectively solve global payment challenges which are of
critical value to both businesses and consumers. Financial institutions
and mobile operators anywhere in the world can leverage our brandable
technology and turnkey compliance, settlement, and customer care
services, to enable global money transfers for their customers."
