Brick Acquires Remitance Companies And Launches Transaction Management Products
Brick, along with its strategic partners in Indonesia, has acquired a majority stake in PT Eastern Global Remittance (ETR), the license owner of the Category 3 Payment Services Provider (PJP) for the remittance service from Bank Indonesia. In partnership with ETR, Brick (onebrick.io) will launch three business payment products to support more efficient business transactions and cash flow management, for business owners in Indonesia.
Along with Indonesia's rapid economic growth, financial management is often a major burden for business owners who want to transform their operations. Challenges such as complicated administrative processes and erratic cash flows often hinder performance and limit space for movement to innovate.
Answering this fact, Brick comes with various breakthroughs through the digital financial product ecosystem to free business owners from the shackles of financial administration. So that they can focus on pursuing aspirations and realizing the dream of building a tough business and contributing to the progress of the nation.
Brick co-Founder and CEO Gavin Tan said in a written statement on Thursday, October 12, that this acquisition is a strategic step for Brick to provide more innovative business payment solutions for its customers.
"We will take advantage of the advantages we have in the field of technology and payment infrastructure to provide easier, faster, and more affordable transaction experience for business people in Indonesia through technology," said Gavin.
Brick is working with licensed partner ecosystems to launch three business payment solutions for the company.
How come BrickPay helps the process of sending money to many destinations at once with one click. Its flagship features include payment links with automatic reminders; calculation and disbursement of salaries one click; and mass disbursement.
