Airwallex Recognised as a Company of Good for Commitment to Corporate Purpose and Social Impact in Singapore

SINGAPORE--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Airwallex, a leading global financial platform for modern businesses, has been recognised as a Company of Good (COG) by the National Volunteer & Philanthropy Centre (NVPC) for its meaningful and growing contributions to corporate purpose and community impact in Singapore. This national recognition affirms Airwallex's ongoing commitment to building a more inclusive and sustainable future through purposeful business practices, in line with the Forward Singapore movement and COG's five pillars: People, Society, Governance, Environment, and Economic. 'At Airwallex, purpose is central to our mission,' said Lucy Liu, Co-founder and President, Airwallex. 'We're proud to be recognised as a Company of Good and to do our part in strengthening the communities in which we live and work. We believe innovation and impact go hand in hand – and we'll continue finding new ways to use our time, product, and expertise to drive economic empowerment, inclusion, and opportunity.' Airwallex Impact: Turning purpose into action Airwallex's recognition is a strong endorsement of Airwallex Impact, its global social impact programme launched in late 2024, grounded in the company's pledge to the Pledge 1% movement – a global initiative that encourages companies to commit 1% of equity, product, profit, and employee time for the greater good. Since committing to Pledge 1%, over 120 Airwallex employees globally have contributed volunteer days across a diverse range of activities in the first half of 2025 – a 58% uplift compared to the whole of 2024. Through Airwallex Impact, the company will continue to deliver volunteering initiatives, forge social impact partnerships, and establish donation frameworks across its global offices, including its Singapore headquarters. Creating lasting impact on the ground in Singapore In Singapore, Airwallex employees have already begun making a tangible difference through a range of volunteering initiatives in 2025 that support youth empowerment, marine conservation, and environmental innovation. Highlights include: Inspiring the next generation of tech leaders: In partnership with United Women Singapore's Girls2Pioneers initiative, Airwallex hosted 16 aspiring young women for a hands-on FinTech & Career Readiness Workshop. The experience included crash courses in Engineering, Product, Commercial, Brand and People Operations – giving participants a real-world window into STEM careers. Marine conservation in action: Employees took part in a reef survey with Marine Stewards, contributing data to preserve Singapore's marine biodiversity and protect its coastal ecosystems. Ocean clean-up initiative: Airwallex employees joined Ocean Purpose Project – a Pasir Ris-based social enterprise – for a half-day kayak clean-up and learning journey. Participants collected trash from the sea, explored a native seaweed farm, and learned how plastic waste is being converted into low-sulphur fuel and bio-stimulants to restore our oceans. Looking ahead: 'Invest In Our Home' with Endowus Airwallex is also proud to be the Gold Partner for the upcoming Endowus Giving Machines (EGB) Campaign, running from August 2025 to January 2026. These islandwide 'virtual giving machines' – which can be found at high traffic areas such as MRT stations, bus stops, malls and cinemas – enable individuals to make charitable donations to a wide range of causes. Since its launch, the initiative has raised nearly S$300,000 in donations for over 40 local charities. This year, EGB is held in conjunction with SG60, aligning with the theme of 'Building Our Singapore Together' where contributions may be eligible for the SG Gives matching grant.

This Everyday Credit Card Habit Could Be Helping — or Hurting — Your Finances, According to a CFP

Question #30 of GOBankingRates' Top 100 Money Experts [LINK] Series By now, using your credit card has become a reflex. You're at the grocery store, handing it over to the cashier. You order a coffee at your favorite local spot and tap to pay. You take your seat again, where your laptop remains open to those airline tickets you've got to book — with your credit card, of course. You've got a good groove going. But sometimes, you wonder if your habit of using your credit card to pay for everyday purchases might be doing more harm than good. After all, you're racking up points and rewards, which is a good thing, right? What's not so good? Just how easy it can be to overspend when you're not seeing your actual cash leave your wallet or your checking account take a hit. Making this common way of using your credit card work for you can be a fine balancing act. Fortunately, Chloe Moore, CFP, founder of Financial Staples, has insights to help you walk that tightrope successfully. The Perks Can Be Worth It — If You Use Your Card Responsibly That regular habit of relying on your credit card to get your groceries or fill up your tank may seem simple enough, but it can be a great way to earn some significant rewards like cash back, points or airline miles. Moore calls these benefits 'a rebate for purchases you would have made without the card.' Moore is also keen on turning your everyday credit card purchases into the foundation of good credit. You know you need to have a solid credit rating to get a lot of what you want in life, from lower mortgage rates to better deals on car loans. And you get good credit by showing a history of making your payments on time. Smaller purchases, like a meal at that coffee shop or a tank of gas, make it easier for you to pay everything back quickly — boosting your credit. But Moore's advice comes with a catch. This plan only works if you don't treat your credit card like free money. 'Keep in mind that these cards are only beneficial when used responsibly, which means you don't spend more than you normally would on everyday expenses, and you have the ability to pay off the balance in full each month,' she said. It's Not a Good Approach if You Can't Control Your Spending Responsibility is the name of the game when it comes to using a credit card. If following a budget is more of an aspiration than a reality, you could all too easily fall into the spiral of credit card debt. 'Studies show that you're likely to spend more when using a credit card than with cash, and you're more likely to buy on impulse,' Moore said. If you're already struggling to stick to a budget or show caution in your spending, you can quickly find yourself in real trouble. By giving yourself permission to put groceries on your card, you might be unconsciously giving yourself permission to splurge on other things — things you don't need and can't pay for when the bill comes due. 'If you don't have a solid budget or control over your everyday purchases, you could be one wrong move away from getting into credit card debt,' Moore said. 'Any interest you pay for carrying over a balance far exceeds any benefits or rewards you'll receive from a credit card.' And it's not just interest that's at stake: Moore notes that missing a payment or having a high credit utilization ratio could ding your credit score. You Can Build Up to Everyday Use Even if you're not quite ready to responsibly make small, everyday purchases with your credit card, you can still put good practices in place that will help you build credit wisely. Moore suggests starting out by using credit cards regularly for fixed bills or regular expenses that you'd normally pay with your checking account. If you really want to get those rewards and perks right away, you could save for a large, planned purchase in advance so that you can immediately pay off the credit card bill. 'Also, remember that you're not limited to a single monthly payment,' Moore said. 'Making a credit card payment weekly or when you receive your paycheck could help ensure that you pay your balance in full and avoid costly interest.'
