Travelex, a Finablr company and a market leading independent foreign exchange specialist, has today unveiled its new B2B fintech platform, Travelex Business.
Travelex Business allows the company’s partners including banks, credit unions, retailers and digital technology companies, to access a broad range of payments and foreign exchange services in one place. The launch of the Travelex Business platform follows a four-year digital transformation project.
Travelex Business leverages the strengths of Finablr’s network and capabilities and combines it with a state-of-the-art cloud-based, API-led platform. The platform provides a seamless way for customers across mature and emerging markets to move money around the world. From cash management to cross border payments and retail currency conversion via APIs, Travelex Business addresses a wide range of enterprise and consumer needs with its omni-channel, multi-currency capabilities. For digital technology companies wanting to offer cross border payments services to their customers, services can be delivered as a white-label offering.
Travelex Business builds on Finablr’s global capabilities and includes three core product suites underpinned by a developer centre which allows customers to explore Travelex services
• Travelex Business Cash is a technology driven solution that allows end users to quickly and securely receive cash, by working with large banks, financial institutions and retailers.

• Travelex Business Digital is a developer platform, that provides access to Travelex Business APIs so partners can embed capabilities and processes into their products and services.
Gareth Williams, Chief Product and Innovation Officer at Travelex comments:
“The platform is the culmination of years of hard work by Travelex and collaboration across the Finablr network. By revolutionising how we work, the technology we use, and the partners we work with, we have combined four decades of experience with a new microservices architecture to build a market-leading global fintech platform. Critically, working with Finablr, we have adopted a modern engineering culture with self-organising teams in order to create and iterate on a new and innovative suite of services.
“Not only does this allow Travelex to continually innovate and improve its products and services, but it gives our customers the services they need within one solution—and the developer centre means that our customers and prospects can experiment with our capabilities at their own convenience.
Travelex Business ensures companies get to market quicker, increase revenues and boost customer value with agile services available at the click of a button.”
