For decades, those living in <span class=\"xn-location\">the United States<\/span> had to endure long wait times and high fees at traditional money transfer agents. The rise of smart phones has enabled Remitly to change the landscape dramatically by offering an easy-to-use mobile app that provides a less costly, convenient and safe way to send money instantly through its global transaction network of over 31,000 bank and retail partners.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;When people working and living in <span class=\"xn-location\">the United States<\/span> send money to their loved ones, it lifts people up the economic ladder to achieve a better life,&#8221; said Remitly CEO <span class=\"xn-person\">Matt Oppenheimer<\/span>. &#8220;The stories we hear of overwhelming generosity are incredibly inspiring. We are proud to help our customers keep more of their hard-earned money by offering a product that is less expensive, more transparent and faster.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Remitly estimates its mobile app helped send hundreds of millions of pesos last year to customers&#8217; loved ones in <span class=\"xn-location\">Mexico<\/span>, saving them almost half-a-million dollars in in fees in the process. The company has built an extensive network of over 12,000 major banks and retail partners in <span class=\"xn-location\">Mexico<\/span> to facilitate cash pickup or direct deposits into bank accounts.<\/p>\n<p>Customer success in <span class=\"xn-location\">Mexico<\/span> made further <span class=\"xn-location\">Latin America<\/span> expansion a natural next step.
