Payments Infrastructure for Digital Assets in Southeast Asia

StraitsX, the leading payment infrastructure for digital assets in Southeast Asia, is a licensed Major Payment Institution (MPI) in Singapore, and regulated by the Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS). StraitsX offers personal and business account holders to mint, redeem, and swap stablecoins, manage payments, as well as connect their accounts to digital asset platforms. StraitsX business accounts can also access B2B API-enabled payment rails for digital asset platforms.

StraitsX is also the issuer of the XSGD and XIDR stablecoins. XSGD, the first digital Singapore Dollar stablecoin, was first publicly released back in October 2020, followed by XIDR, the Indonesian Rupiah stablecoin in November 2021. Today, individuals and businesses alike are able to tap on the speed and efficiency of XSGD (ERC-20, ZRC-2, POS, HTC, AVAX) and XIDR's (ERC-20, ZRC-2, POS) multichain support, and an ever-growing ecosystem to transact in stablecoins globally. Each StraitsX stablecoin remains redeemable on a one-to-one basis with their respective fiat currencies on the StraitsX platform.

StraitsX’s mission is to spearhead the growing development of the integration between traditional and decentralized finance, amplifying stablecoin potential through value-added payment use cases, especially in areas where stablecoins can play the most relevant role. Notably, ongoing collaborations with the Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS) and other industry partners on the development of Programmable Money, and 'Purpose Bound Money' has underscored StraitsX’s goal in bringing value-added payment use cases for stablecoins mainstream.
