LONDON, May 14, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Today, leading embedded finance and Banking-as-a-Service (BaaS) platform, OpenPayd announces its partnership with Wirex, a prominent Web3 money app, to provide named virtual IBANs to its customers across the UK and European Economic Area (EEA) strengthening Wirex's core mission to provide easy, fast and secure payment methods to its customers.
