About Mayer
Mayer's story
Mayer Marketing has been a trusted name in home and kitchen appliances in Singapore since 1987. Best known for their stylish, high-performance products – including air fryers that became a kitchen essential during the COVID-driven home cooking surge — Mayer now operates 10 showrooms island-wide. Today, they generate approximately S$45M in annual revenue across all channels and brands, including Mayer and Mistral.
The challenge
As Mayer expanded into new markets, they ran into several challenges
- High wire-transfer fees, intermediary charges and FX markups of 3–5% per transaction when using traditional banks
- Delayed supplier payments, impacting cash flow and vendor relationships
- Difficulty receiving payments in currencies like MYR from Malaysian customers
