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.

“We’re excited to partner with Airwallex on the Endowus Giving Machines campaign to make giving more accessible, visible and impactful across Singapore," said Gregory Van, Co-founder and CEO, Endowus. "Airwallex’s commitment to social impact aligns with our shared belief that finance can be a force for good – not just in building wealth, but in enabling broader social impact. Together, we’re empowering more people to support meaningful causes that they care about in simple, everyday ways."

As Airwallex continues to grow in Singapore and across the region, its focus remains clear: to create long-term value for businesses, communities and the broader economy by pairing world-class financial infrastructure with strong corporate purpose.
