According to a recent LinkedIn post from ONERWAY, Overcross Pte. Ltd., the licensed operator of the ONERWAY payment platform, has obtained approval for a Major Payment Institution licence from the Monetary Authority of Singapore, effective March 1, 2026. The post indicates that this licence will allow Overcross to offer merchant acquisition, domestic money transfer, and cross-border money transfer services under the ONERWAY brand.

The LinkedIn post portrays this regulatory status as a key step in embedding ONERWAY more deeply within Singapore’s regulated financial ecosystem. For investors, access to a full MPI licence in Singapore could enhance the company’s ability to scale payment volumes, attract institutional and corporate clients, and participate in higher-value cross-border flows.
The post also emphasizes adherence to MAS standards on anti–money laundering, countering the financing of terrorism, safeguarding of funds, and technology risk management. Strong regulatory oversight and compliance positioning may strengthen ONERWAY’s credibility with partners and enterprise customers, potentially supporting long-term revenue growth, though execution and competitive dynamics in the fintech and payments sector remain critical variables.
By highlighting secure and scalable payment solutions for both local and global businesses, the post suggests an ambition to compete in regional and possibly broader cross-border payment corridors. If ONERWAY successfully leverages its Singapore base and MPI status, it could improve its competitive standing against other licensed fintech and payment institutions operating in Asia’s increasingly regulated digital payments landscape.
