Payouts to Singapore

Pay Singapore dollars from USDT or USDC

Singapore is where the region's holding companies, family offices and trading houses keep their treasury, and where many of XEROF's own counterparties bank. SGD is paid to a Singapore bank account over GIRO from a USDT or USDC balance, up to SGD 1,000,000 per payment, business to business, business to consumer and consumer to business.

How a payout to Singapore works

GIRO settles within the business day. A treasury that holds stablecoins and pays Singapore dollar invoices runs the conversion and the payment from the same XEROF Online workspace, with each beneficiary screened once.

Who pays Singapore dollars this way

  • A family office moving stablecoin proceeds to a Singapore dollar account of a business it pays.

Paying Singapore from Zug: timing and practicalities

Singapore is six to seven hours ahead of Zug, so a GIRO payment confirmed in the Swiss morning lands in the Singapore afternoon, and one confirmed after Swiss midday settles the next Singapore banking day. GIRO does not run on Singapore public holidays.

Singapore companies are identified by their UEN alongside the account number, and family offices and holding companies in this corridor typically pay the same handful of service providers each quarter, so beneficiaries are screened once and reused.

What XEROF needs before the first payment

  • Beneficiary name, bank and account number, with the UEN for a company.
  • The invoice, fee note or contract the payment settles.
  • Where the receiving bank asks for it, the purpose code for the GIRO payment.
