What you told us
Of the bank’s ~8.6M active members, conservatively ~1M send money home each year. Today most of it leaves through Western Union and MoneyGram.
- Expensive
~5% all-in, fee plus FX spread. About $15 lost on a $300 transfer.
- Slow
T+2 to T+5 settlement, then a cash-pickup window in business hours.
- Friction
Drive to an agent. Paper forms. Photo ID at the counter. Every month.
Estimated opportunity
~$3.5B a year
In member remittance volume routed through Western Union and MoneyGram. At ~5% all-in (World Bank, Q1 2025), that is ~$175M a year in fees leaving the bank’s ecosystem.
