Before its official launch today (Thursday, Sept. 21), Audax Financial Technology powered Standard Chartered nexus, a white-label plug-and-play BaaS offering for large ecosystem players. Standard Chartered was the first global bank to provide BaaS in Asia.
Other collaborations include: Audax Financial Technology entered a commercial partnership with the Indonesian all-commerce platform Bukalapak to launch BukaTabungan for its 150 million users and 20 million business owners.
