World's Leading & China's No.1 B2B Cross-Border Trade Payment Platform, XTransfer, launched its new solution XTransfer to XTransfer (X2X) payment during the Fair. It is a groundbreaking innovation, aiming to accelerate the efficiency of cross-border transactions and save transaction costs for international sellers and buyers.

As global economic integration continues to deepen, small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) have become the main participants in international trade, and the facilitation of cross-border settlement has become an important topic in trade transformation.

Traditional cross-border trade settlements primarily relied on bank wires, which could involve multiple correspondent banks and typically took 3-7 working days to process and the transaction fees are very high . However, when both buyers and sellers use XTransfer accounts for payments and receipts, i.e., X2X payment, trade funds can be securely and compliantly transferred in real-time, 24/7, with no handling fees, achieving seamless flow of trade funds throughout the process.

Zheng Kai, Co-Chief Global Officer and co-founder of XTransfer, was invited to participate in the seminar on enhancing the digital level of trade held by the Ministry of Commerce. "As long as both buyers and sellers use XTransfer, their settlements can be completed in seconds, anytime, anywhere, across regions, time zones, and currencies, with zero transaction fees. XTransfer will provide services to global trade enterprises and become an important basic service provider for global B2B cross-border trade," said Zheng Kai.
