Enhancing Overseas Remittance Services: Queen Bee Capital and Ashikaga Bank Partnership
In a significant move to improve overseas remittance services,
Queen Bee Capital (based in Minato, Tokyo) and
Ashikaga Bank (headquartered in Utsunomiya, Tochigi) have signed a business partnership. Starting from
September 10, both companies will work together to promote the use of Queen Bee Capital’s overseas remittance service,
PayForex. This collaboration aims to extend the reach of PayForex and introduce it to new users.
The Partnership Explained
The partnership will primarily focus on facilitating small remittances (under ¥1 million) for individual customers who wish to send money abroad. By collaborating with Ashikaga Bank, Queen Bee Capital aims to streamline the remittance process, making it accessible, fast, safe, and reliable for users who require services such as sending living expenses abroad.
To celebrate this collaboration, new accounts created through Ashikaga Bank will benefit from a special coupon waiving the initial remittance fee.
Rationale Behind the Collaboration
The need for overseas remittance services has surged in the
Kanto region, especially among foreign residents and companies hiring foreign talent. This partnership seeks to satisfy the growing demand for quick and effective remittance options for amounts under ¥1 million, particularly for residents needing to send money for living expenses.
Ashikaga Bank intends to facilitate a smoother cross-border remittance experience, thereby contributing to the growth of the regional economy and enhancing the quality of life for foreign residents in the area. Previously, Queen Bee Capital had collaborated with Joyobank to cater to the remittance needs of foreign workers in Ibaraki Prefecture. This latest partnership with Ashikaga Bank allows for an extensive remittance infrastructure that supports foreign workers and their families across Tochigi and Ibaraki prefectures.
Future Goals
The collaboration aims not only at enhancing user convenience and processing efficiency at Ashikaga Bank but also at attracting new customers for Queen Bee Capital. By promoting the advantages of using PayForex, the goal is to attract individuals who haven't used overseas remittance services before, showcasing how user-friendly, fast, affordable, and safe the platform is.
Additionally, through these efforts, Queen Bee Capital plans to support the quality of life for foreign residents in the Kanto region, building a solid foundation for remittance services while fostering improved living standards for both communities and international talents.
