HONG KONG, Nov. 13, 2025 -- Over the past decade, the role of payments has been transformed—from the end of a transaction to the beginning of business growth. As global connectivity deepens, payment innovation has become the driving force behind the new wave of global commerce. From cross-border e-commerce and digital entertainment to travel and international brands, fintech is shaping how businesses operate, build trust and grow across borders.

"Payment is the language of global growth. It connects consumers, businesses, and ecosystem partners—and serves as the foundational infrastructure of a new wave of globalization," said Jakey Liang, Vice President of Oceanpayment.

The past ten years have reshaped the fundamentals of global expansion. Digitalization, sustainability, and the rebalancing of globalization now define the new economy. Fintech has emerged as a key enabler, helping businesses reach consumers faster, safer, and smarter. Payment technology stands out as one of the most universal and transformative areas in fintech. It has evolved from simply processing transactions to actively driving growth and enabling seamless, secure, and borderless experiences.

This trend is particularly evident in emerging markets such as Southeast Asia, Latin America and the Middle East, where digital payment ecosystems and financial inclusion are enabling millions to join the global economy. As regional payment systems rise and local wallets integrate with global networks, a more diverse and collaborative financial infrastructure is emerging—a true network of trust powering global growth.

For more than a decade, Oceanpayment has built technology that connects global commerce. Its integrated platform—combining Acquiring, Issuing, OPCCOUNT and OPNexus (Payment Suite & Services)—together with AI-driven data intelligence, has helped businesses grow with greater transparency, agility and resilience. Across sectors from online retail to travel, Oceanpayment turns payment technology into a genuine engine of sustainable growth.

Looking ahead, the next decade will see payments evolve from connecting transactions to connecting value. The future of fintech will be open, intelligent, and sustainable, enabling finance that is more connected and inclusive.

Payment innovation is no longer the end of a transaction—it's the foundation for future global growth.
