In the future, PhotonPay will continue to invest in both technology and compliance to build a more efficient, secure, and scalable payment and fund management network for global enterprises.

The AI-driven global digital financial infrastructure platform PhotonPay stood out among numerous international entries in the Asia Adam Smith Awards 2025, winning the "Best Foreign Exchange Solution" recommendation award. This internationally recognized award not only reflects the high recognition of the judging panel for PhotonPay's technical strength in foreign exchange management and global payment fields but also marks a solid step forward for the company in the path of global fintech innovation.

As the business continues to expand, the original operational model relying on a multi-bank account system has gradually exposed issues in efficiency and risk management. The decentralized account structure makes it difficult to concentrate liquidity and lacks the ability to connect instantly with the global foreign exchange market. Under the constraints of traditional bank cut-off times, when there is a night-time foreign exchange demand, the funding team cannot execute transactions immediately and can only defer them to the next day, leading to forced exposure of foreign exchange positions.

Moreover, urgent cross-timezone transfers and daily fund management still rely heavily on manual intervention, requiring employees to repeatedly work overtime to meet the fund flow needs of global clients, and clients' cross-currency settlements cannot avoid T+1 or T+2 delays. Faced with multiple pressures of cost, efficiency, and risk control, PhotonPay urgently needs a foundational financial infrastructure that can achieve round-the-clock automated fund scheduling and foreign exchange processing without large-scale technological transformation, in order to maintain a competitive edge in the global payment industry.

As one of the first blockchain foreign exchange solutions launched by major international banks, Kinexys is based on distributed ledger technology, providing enterprises with instant liquidity and on-chain foreign exchange capabilities through blockchain deposit accounts (BDAs), allowing cross-border and cross-currency fund transfers to be completed in about 90 seconds, significantly shortening the original T+1 or T+2 settlement cycle. The system covers nine major operational locations globally and five mainstream currencies, meeting the vast majority of daily foreign exchange needs while extending the processing window by about eight hours beyond traditional bank cut-off times, effectively breaking through the time limitations of financial infrastructure.

More importantly, this solution introduces programmable payment functions that can automatically execute fund allocation and management operations based on preset rules and liquidity thresholds, even during holidays without manual calculations or pre-stored funds. After the system went live, the work mode of PhotonPay's fund management team underwent significant changes. Tasks that previously required a lot of time for cross-timezone urgent allocations, manual monitoring of foreign exchange positions, and constant calculations of daily repayment needs are now largely handled by the automated system. The team has been liberated from repetitive transactional work, allowing them to focus more on customer service, product innovation, and strategic management of global liquidity, significantly enhancing the resilience and efficiency of fund operations.

PhotonPay stated that the collaboration with JPMorgan Kinexys further solidifies the company's foundational infrastructure capabilities in its globalization process, enabling it to provide services to global clients more stably and agilely. In the future, PhotonPay will continue to invest in both technology and compliance to build a more efficient, secure, and scalable payment and fund management network for global enterprises.
