Geoswift, a leading provider of cross-border payments between China and the rest of the world, announced its partnership with Bank of Shanghai to launch a new remittance service in 2017. This announcement was made at Money 20/20 Las Vegas today. This partnership will enable businesses and individuals globally to remit funds into China through a secure and efficient medium that is well recognized by China’s regulators, combining the network and market expertise of Geoswift and Bank of Shanghai.

The United States remains one of the world’s last bastions of the paper check, a situation a startup called Checkbook Inc. sees as a massive opportunity.

If you’re sick of running out of paper checks and stamps or hassling with routing numbers to send zero-fee payments, you can bank on Checkbook. The startup today launches its digital check service where you can send anyone a check with just their email address, and they can deposit it immediately online to get their money or even print it out.
