Flash Payments – Bringing Filipino Families Closer

Emily Johnson -

Flash Payments is now offering a first-in-kind remittance solution for Filipinos living in Australia: affordable, trackable and near-instant money transfers from Australian dollars to Philippine pesos powered by the innovative and secure RippleNet payments solution.

Read on to learn how Flash Payments’s integration with Ripple is helping Filipino migrants in Australia maximise PHP value with real-time money transfers.

The Flash Payments Difference

Most international money transfer companies fall short in delivering a quality, fair experience to Filipinos looking to send money home from Australia. While they may score well on price, too often they perform poorly in important areas like speed and security.

Flash Payments is different. Our holistic approach means we provide superior service in all the areas of the transfer process that matter:

  • Speed: Near-instant settlement. As soon as Flash Payments receives your funds, we transfer them in real-time to the Philippines for local distribution.

  • Value: No hidden transaction fees means your recipient receives more PHP at the end of every transfer.

  • Security: Our best-in-class encryption technology ensures that your money is safe every step of the way.

  • Choice: Whether you prefer cash collection or bank deposit, Flash Payments gives you the flexibility to choose your method of funds delivery.

  • Accountability: Track your money every step of the way on your Flash Payments dashboard. Got a question? Our live chat function is staffed by real humans to walk you through anything you want to know about your transfer.

How it Works

Flash Payments uses the innovative and secure RippleNet On-Demand-Liquidity payments solution, a product of the well-known technology company Ripple, to power our Australian dollar to Philippine peso cross-border payments. RippleNet uses the digital asset XRP as a pseudo “bridge” between AUD and PHP, resulting in faster settlement times and lower transaction costs. By removing the middlemen, Flash Payments is able to deliver better value and split-second transfer times for AUD to PHP conversions.
