TORONTO, June 11, 2015 /CNW/ - Midpoint Holdings Ltd. ("Midpoint") (TSXV: MPT) (FSE:8MH), the world's first authentic peer-to-peer ('P2P') international foreign currency and payments platform, is pleased to announce that it has won the award for "Best P2P Currency Matching Platform" at the 2015 Acquisition International Business Excellence Awards.

The Midpoint platform provides its customers with access to multi-party, multi-currency transactions and removes the impact of currency rate spreads, as well as the hidden costs and fees imposed by traditional banks and brokers, saving its customers money. The Business Excellence Awards recognises the ingenuity and hard work of the Midpoint team over the past 12 months and seeks to highlight and celebrate the outstanding performance and results achieved by some of the industry's leading lights in a competitive market.

John Booth, Chairman and CEO of Midpoint, said: "This is our second award in three months and one we are very proud to have won.  As the first truly authentic international peer-to-peer payments platform, winning this award is very gratifying for us.  There is growing recognition, including from major organisations such as Goldman Sachs, that international B2B payments represents a major market opportunity for disruptive financial technology providers, so having Midpoint's multi-party, multi-currency P2P matching platform singled out as being at the forefront of the industry is very important."

Speaking about the winners, Awards Coordinator, Nathan Angell, said: "Midpoint's success is testament to the amazing work they put in to achieve great results for their clients while really setting the standards for what can be achieved in their sector."
