UAE Botim users can now remit direct to Tencent-owned Weixin users in China



The new collaboration ‘eliminates traditional boundaries, enabling Botim users to make international transfers via Botim messenger platform directly to over 1 billion Weixin users’, Astra Tech said in a statement.

Recipients in China can receive funds through Weixin messages, monitor the remittance status, and choose to receive funds using Weixin Wallet Balance or bank cards linked to Weixin Pay.

"By bridging continents and enabling seamless financial interactions, we pioneer a new era of cross-platform financial inclusion,” said Abdallah Abu Sheikh, co-founder of Astra Tech and CEO of Botim.

“This also elevates the UAE’s status as a global tech and finance powerhouse, reaffirming our commitment to simplifying our users' everyday experience.”
