“MENA continues to be a critical region for Ripple thanks to our outstanding roster of customers, a welcoming regulatory environment, and a regional focus on the needed improvements in the current financial system.

Ripple’s ODL Service
The ODL service from Ripple gained immense popularity among global financial institutions in 2021. In July, Ripple introduced the first live ODL offering in Japan. Furthermore, the company acquired a 40% stake in Tranglo, one of the fastest-growing cross-border payment firms in Asia.
“We’re excited to be Ripple’s first partner of choice to bring the deployment of ODL to the Middle East. This enables our ever-increasing number of users to deliver remittances instantly and cost-effectively. We’ve also reduced our inefficient use of capital through ODL, and look forward to an exciting rollout of its capabilities across the region,” Antti Arponen, Co-Founder and CEO of Pyypl, said in the press release.
