Ant International

Ant International launched in March 2024 as the independent global arm of Ant Group, moving its operations out of mainland China to serve markets across Asia, Europe, the Middle East, and Latin America. The company operates four distinct business units: Antom for digital payment solutions, WorldFirst for cross-border B2B payments, e-Wallet for consumer mobile wallets, and Antom Global for financial ecosystem services. Its Singapore headquarters acts as the central hub for this expansion, where the firm recently established the Ant International Foundation in October 2026 to foster regional innovation.

Gary Liu leads the organization as CEO, steering a strategic pivot toward AI-driven "agentic" commerce that embeds artificial intelligence directly into transactional workflows rather than limiting it to generative interfaces. In September 2026, the company unveiled 100 new products designed to automate global financial operations through AI agents. This marked the industry's first full-stack AI-native solution covering payment, account management, foreign exchange, treasury, and growth operations. [edit]
