StarHub adds digital remittance services for Mobile Prepaid customers

StarHub Mobile Prepaid customers can now send money to anyone across over 40 countries in as quickly as a day through the StarHub Prepaid app, which now comes integrated with digital remittance in partnership with Singapore fintech and licensed major payment institution Pay2Home.

With digital remittances, there is no need to queue physically or book appointments. Everything – from verifying identity to checking daily-updated currency rates, transferring money and managing prepaid accounts – is done simply within the app. Signing up for the Pay2Home remittance service through the StarHub Prepaid app is free, easy and secure. Customers can thereafter fund their remittance through cashless means or with cash, and transfer it to over 500,000 destination points across the Pay2Home network.

“Using just a single app, our mobile prepaid customers are able to support and connect with their loved ones in more ways than one. Collaborating with Pay2Home, we are delighted to give customers the best experience and meet their increasing demand for secure 24x7 contactless mobile remittance,” said Donovan Kik, VP of Mobile Marketing, StarHub.

“We see this partnership with StarHub as a synergistic collaboration that revolves around convenience, financial inclusion and building firmly on Singapore government initiatives like Go Digital and a mandate for businesses to reinvent in the new norm,” said David Hulme, Co-founder and Director, Pay2Home.

As an exclusive, StarHub Mobile Prepaid customers will be able to make the first remittance free-of-charge. For subsequent remittances, there is a low flat fee per transaction that is shared prior to customers settling their transfers.
