With their global relationships, they've enabled users to securely spend or accept in 164 currencies. With this acquisition, Allied Wallet will now offer their solution to millions of new users throughout Asia.

There are over 538 million internet users in China alone and we will be giving them a safer, better way to pay online,” said CEO Andy Khawaja.

With over 2.3 Billion China UnionPay cardholders in Asia and abroad, Allied Wallet is sure to see exponential success in this region with their recent acquisition and bring a state-of-the-art payment solution to new merchants and CloudAsia's previous clientele.
