By making use of the latest technologies to address the longstanding pain points of SMEs, such as difficulties in bank account opening and inefficient cross-border payment, we hope to be able to contribute to Hong Kong’s position as Asia’s trade and settlement hub.”

Daniel Tian, Chief Executive Officer of RD Wallet said,

“The grant of the SVF license is an important milestone that enables us to achieve our mission of delivering a safe and customer-centric e-wallet platform for SMEs. Through the application of advanced technologies, RD Wallet offers numerous cutting-edge payment and ancillary functions. We look forward to launching the RD Wallet soon to provide quality and efficient payment services to SMEs.”
