Ripple announced that they surpassed 300 customers this year and out which more than two dozens are using XRP through On-Demand Liquidity. MoneyGram, goLance, Viamericas, FlashFX, and Interbank Peru are some of the company’s customers that are using On-Demand Liquidity.

On-Demand Liquidity, previously known as xRapid, is Ripple’s product that allows easy and secure cross-border settlements. According to Ripple, the number of transactions in the payment system has grown seven times since the end of Q1 2019.
