Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS) has granted Digital Treasures Center (DTC) the Major Payment Institution (MPI) license.

Securing the full license means DTC has exited from the exemption status and is now a fully regulated provider (MAS license number: PS20200531) of Digital Payment Token (DPT) and other payment services under the Payment Services Act (PSA).

“We are excited to obtain the full license from MAS. With the full licensing, we will continue to build on the good work that the team is currently doing while looking to expand our footprint globally starting from our ASEAN neighbors,” said Ms. Alice Liu, Chief Executive Officer and founder of DTC.

“Our base in Singapore provides us with the unique competitive advantage in leveraging the country’s strong business infrastructure, strong government support, innovation ecosystem, and strong regulatory framework to allow us to expand our company.
