With the world's largest, independent direct-to-bank payout network, Transpay was a natural partner for Zooppa, the world's leading source of user-generated advertising. Transpay's network will enable near-instant payouts for Zooppa's global pool of leading directors, producers, writers and cinematographers, who are now able to get paid through direct bank deposits or cash pickup at any of Transpay's 200,000 payment points worldwide.

"We're pleased that Zooppa will be using Transpay across a wide range of countries, from China to India, Mexico, Italy and beyond," says Nagarajan Rao, Senior Vice President of Transpay. "Zooppa is a dynamic and innovative company and we know we'll find many ways to grow our partnership in the years to come."

As Transpay enhances the experience of the Zooppa community by offering more flexible payment options, Zooppa is putting Transpay in touch with the world's top up-and-coming filmmakers to produce video content for Transpay's fast-growing client base of travel and crowdsourcing businesses.   

"We're already getting positive feedback from our filmmaker community, which is eager to show the world the power of Transpay's payment platform," says Will Merrit, CEO of Zooppa. "We're thrilled about the positive response we've received from our community, especially regarding the speed of Transpay's offering, and lack of additional bank fees."

Within two weeks, the companies were able to integrate their technologies and provide training for Zooppa's accounting team. Almost immediately, community members on the Zooppa platform were receiving payments in local currency quickly and conveniently, directly to their bank account without non-transparent fees, such as landing fees and activation fees.
