Thunes Expands its Direct Global Network to the Nordic Region

Thunes, the renowned superhighway for global money transfer, has announced its latest service expansion, introducing direct banking payments to Denmark, Norway, and Sweden. This move enhances Thunes' presence in the Nordic markets, allowing its network members to conduct faster cross-border transactions for both businesses and consumers alike.

The new service includes the establishment of direct payment corridors facilitating transactions in Danish kroner (DKK), Norwegian krone (NOK), and Swedish krona (SEK). According to the World Bank, the Nordic region recorded export volumes exceeding $600 billion in 2024, while inbound remittances totaled over $5.4 billion in 2023. The addition of these corridors reflects Thunes' commitment to meeting the growing demand for swift and efficient payment solutions in this vibrant economic landscape.

With a robust API integration, the new service leverages Thunes' SmartX treasury system alongside the Fortress Compliance platform, which collectively enhance members' capabilities in terms of speed, control, visibility, security, and cost efficiency for cross-border payments.

By extending our Direct Global Network to the Nordic region, we offer a modern alternative to traditional systems, ensuring payments to Denmark, Norway, and Sweden are executed with optimal speed, security, and operational efficiency."
