Paysend, the next-generation payment platform enabling customers and businesses all around the world to pay, hold and send money online anywhere, anyhow and in any currency, announced its partnership with Montreal-based fintech Flinks to expand funding options for Canadians.
“By delivering solutions supported by Canadian companies for Canadian citizens and immigrants, this partnership strengthens Canada’s position as a fintech hub and builds onto a more powerful fintech ecosystem for the nation”
Through this strategic partnership, Paysend has launched a new funding method for Canadians, now including electronic funds transfer (EFT), which allows users to directly transfer funds from one Canadian bank account to another or across the globe. Canadians are no longer restricted by credit card and debit card limits, often requiring multiple transfers. Instead, they can securely send a single transfer of up to $10,000 CAD directly from their bank to over 120 countries while benefiting from Paysend’s revolutionary technology that allows funds to be received in approximately 12 seconds.

Paysend is leading the charge to do so, and we are delighted to enable them with the tools they need to provide faster funding methods, particularly for Canadian immigrants, students, temporary workers and expats,” said Yves-Gabriel Leboeuf, Flinks’ Chief Executive Officer.
