Legatus: Driving Epayment Innovation For Cryptocurrencies


“Most organizations are not operating in properly regulated spaces, making it difficult for banks to conduct operations without fear of risks and criminal activities like money laundering,” expresses Kevin, who is also the CEO of Legatus. And the constantly changing nature of the policies around blockchain and cryptocurrency technologies in each country further complicates payment management.At this juncture, with its crypto-to-fiat and fiat-to-crypto settlement platform and proprietary digital wallet, Legatus empowers its clients to conduct fully-compliant digital transactions. “We help companies and exchanges better collaborate with integrated APIs for various cryptocurrencies,” adds Kevin.
We are not disruptors but rather enablers for the adoption of fintech innovation
Kevin provides some insight into how Japan’s tax rates affect the exchange rates of cryptocurrencies like bitcoin. “The country taxes on capital gains, and if someone intends to sell Bitcoins, they can expect to be taxed up to 50 percent of the amount in question,” he says. By employing the Legatus’ solutions, however, clients experience a nearly tax-free transaction. This is possible due to the company’s extensive economic expertise and where it is headquartered: Singapore. Owing to the country’s taxing policies, it becomes the perfect location to carry out such an operation, further bolstering Legatus’ ability to drive profitable change within the fintech landscape today.
With such capabilities and regulatory knowledge to support companies all over the world, Legatus is leading the epayment movement in the APAC region. “Everyone says they are disruptors and want to make as many changes as possible. But we do not see ourselves as such. We believe we are enablers and want to help banks and other B2B2C firms overcome all their payment challenges,” states Kevin. Moving forward, the company intends to expand its business into Japan, South Korea, Taiwan, and the UK. Legatus will further continue to incorporate technologies that go beyond payments and seeks to provide a holsitic monetary experience to its clients on a global scale for the years to come.
Legatus Global, a Singapore Fintech Association Certified Fintech Company, was listed as a recognised blockchain company in the Singapore Blockchain Landscape 2020, by IMDA (Infocomm Media Development Authority of Singapore), and also a successful company onboarded on the DBS Bank Unleashed program, meant for startups with potential to be the next unicorn.
