SingaporeJune 9, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — OpenWay, a global provider of digital payment software, today announced a partnership with Visa, a global leader in digital payments, to help financial institutions in the Asia-Pacific region bring new payment solutions to market more efficiently.
Banks in the Asia-Pacific region are facing increasing pressure to launch new payment experiences faster, while managing integration complexity, operational resilience, and evolving customer expectations. OpenWay has observed a growing demand from banks and fintech companies for flexible platforms that support faster innovation without requiring large-scale infrastructure replacement.
This partnership enables banks, payment processors, and fintech companies to deploy specific Visa payment functionalities more quickly on OpenWay’s Way4 digital payment software platform. Visa and OpenWay’s prior collaboration on specific product requirements and implementation frameworks helps streamline deployment and shorten implementation cycles.
By joining forces with Visa, OpenWay can align earlier on specific Visa product requirements and implementation frameworks, helping to accelerate preparation for future deployments in the Asia-Pacific region and beyond.
The Way4 platform supports issuing, merchant acquiring, real-time payments, and other payment services on a unified real-time platform, and is now widely adopted by banks, payment processors, and fintech companies globally. The platform is designed to help financial institutions quickly launch and scale new payment solutions with high configurability and operational reliability. Way4 can run on-premises, in the cloud, as a dedicated SaaS, or in a hybrid deployment model.
This builds on several recent product initiatives supported by Way4. These include Visa Flexible Credential, which allows cardholders to access multiple funding sources through a single credential, and Visa Fleet 2.0, which supports fleet-related payment use cases. More Visa products and services are expected to be launched within the same partnership framework.
Rudy Gunawan, Managing Director of OpenWay Asia, said: “As the Asia-Pacific region continues to lead global payment innovation, banks are looking for ways to deliver new customer solutions faster and more efficiently. Our partnership with Visa enhances our ability to support financial institutions in implementing new payment functionalities more quickly on Way4.”
