VND Payments: Upgraded!

Today, Wallex customers can make VND payments to both Individual and Corporate accounts! Previously, it was only possible to make VND payments to Individual beneficiaries.  

The best part? Our powerful VND payment solution that gives you much better value and savings with:

• Real-time transactions for transfers up to VND 500 million
• Competitive, near mid-market FX pay rates when making SGD to VND, USD to VND, IDR to VND, and HKD to VND payments
• No transfer limits – so you can make large payments to corporate beneficiaries at high frequency  

With our new VND capabilities, Wallex customers are better positioned to make inroads within the Vietnamese market and have an easier time procuring new equipment or services, hiring employees, or engaging freelancers.

How can I start making VND payments?

You can now select Individual or Company beneficiaries in the Send Money module on your Wallex dashboard. This is reflected in our new platform UI that makes navigating a breeze.

Do you want to make VND payments but are not currently a Wallex user? Not to worry. We’ll help you get set up after a simple signing up and onboarding process.

Expanded VND capabilities: Ushering in new opportunities amid stronger Singapore-Vietnam economic ties

Business opportunities are blooming as trade links between Singapore and Vietnam reach new highs.  

In January 2024, Vietnam became Singapore’s 10^th largest trading partner as two-way trade grew 18% over the previous year to reach SGD 2.9 billion. These links are set to deepen as imports and exports between both countries reach new highs.

For instance, Vietnam's exports of iron and steel to Singapore increased by over 30 times in January alone. Machinery, equipment, mobile phones, components and spare parts exports grew over 50% to SGD 255.2 million as well.

The largest segment of Vietnam's imports from Singapore, which was also machinery, equipment, mobile phones, components and spare parts, recorded growth of 19.82% year-on-year. Other segments such as steam, machine tools and equipment and spare parts of machines increased by nearly 32%.
