Tranglo is planned to use RippleNet channels in South Asia countries. Ripple said that international money transfers can be carried out “faster, at lower cost and more securely” through these channels.

Tranglo CEO Jacky Lee, who stated that they will use ODL in different countries, aims to reach a “wide audience” through this.

The agreement between the parties has not yet been approved by regulators. Ripple has announced that Amir Sarhangi and Brooks Entwistle, one of Ripple’s directors, will join Tranglo’s board if approval is obtained.
