Ripple is known for providing cross-border payments services. The company has made many partnerships with giant banks to make the payments activity across the borders fast and at low costs. They have recently enabled the Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) to enter into the world of most reliable transaction system beyond the borders.

Marcus Treacher, the SVP of the customer service at Ripple, said that in 2020, the low-value transactions across the borders will become efficient on the Ripple’s network as the demand for low-cost transactions without any hurdle is surging.

He, further, propagated on the stance of expanding Ripple services that micro and wallet payments framework will expand in 2020. The inclusion of Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) will further ease the transaction process.

Treacher said:

The shift from traditional, large-value batch flows to low-value, high-volume payments will help SMEs break into new markets much faster. SMEs are often young and fast-growing which exposes them to cash flow crises through late payments from their larger, foreign buyer.

Shift from Traditional to Blockchain-Powered Network
