Cross-border payments, built for Hong Kong businesses

WSCD Solution Limited is a Hong Kong company preparing to provide digital, business-only money changing and remittance services: commercial virtual cards for paying overseas suppliers, and merchant acquiring for receiving international card payments.

Services will launch only after the licence has been granted.

Planned services

Two channels. One purpose.

Both product channels are confined to the statutory definitions of money changing and remittance under the Anti-Money Laundering and Counter-Terrorist Financing Ordinance (Cap. 615).

Money changing + Outward remittance

Commercial Virtual Card Issuance

For Hong Kong companies paying overseas suppliers, digital advertising platforms and SaaS providers. Client funds are received by bank transfer, converted into the required foreign currency and allocated to a commercial virtual card provisioned for an identifiable business expense.

  • Pre-funded in HKD via FPS / CHATS
  • Exchange rate locked before the card is issued
  • Card-level spend limits and merchant category controls
  • No credit, margin or overdraft facilities
Money changing + Inward remittance

Merchant Acquiring

For Hong Kong merchants selling to international buyers. Overseas card payments are processed through the card scheme network; the foreign-currency settlement is converted into Hong Kong dollars and paid out to the merchant's designated local bank account.

  • Settlement received into segregated client accounts
  • Batch conversion into HKD
  • Payout via FPS / CHATS on T+2 or T+3
  • Merchants onboarded only after KYB / CDD

Both channels are designed to operate over the Mastercard and Visa card scheme networks, with client money held in segregated client accounts at banks in Hong Kong.

How it works

100% digital, account-based

Every instruction is given through a secure client portal. Client funds stay in segregated client accounts from the moment they are received until they are paid out.

01

Pre-fund

The verified Hong Kong corporate client transfers HKD by FPS or CHATS into WSCD's segregated client account.

02

Convert

The client requests a card in the currency it needs; the rate is locked and the conversion is executed back-to-back with our settlement bank.

03

Issue

A commercial virtual card is issued for the specific business expense, with a spend limit and merchant controls.

04

Pay & settle

The overseas supplier charges the card. The card scheme authorises it in real time and settles from the segregated account on T+1.

A three-way reconciliation of our internal ledger, card scheme settlement reports and bank statements is performed every business day (T+1).

Serviced corridors. Outbound payments are made predominantly to merchants in North America, the United Kingdom, the European Union and developed Asia-Pacific markets. Inbound receipts come from international cardholders buying from Hong Kong merchants.
Compliance & safeguarding

Built around AML/CFT from day one

Our control framework is designed around the Anti-Money Laundering and Counter-Terrorist Financing Ordinance (Cap. 615) and the guideline issued by the Customs and Excise Department for licensed money service operators, and is set out in our AML/CFT Policy Manual.

Client due diligence

Corporate KYB and CDD, including identity and liveness verification of directors and ultimate beneficial owners, before any account is activated.

Screening

Sanctions, politically exposed person and adverse media screening against UN, OFAC, EU, UK and Hong Kong lists, at onboarding and on an ongoing basis.

Transaction monitoring

Post-transaction monitoring and case management. Suspicious transactions are reported by our MLRO to the Joint Financial Intelligence Unit (JFIU).

Segregated client money

Client funds are ring-fenced in segregated client bank accounts and are never commingled with company operating funds.

Daily reconciliation

T+1 three-way reconciliation of the internal ledger, card scheme settlement reports and bank statements.

Records & security

Transaction and due diligence records kept for at least five years. Cloud infrastructure with edge protection, multi-factor access control and multi-region data redundancy.
