Remitly customers can now move money both to and from Brazil. Our new send experience is built directly for how customers in Brazil move money. Through the Remitly app, customers can pay with Pix, see the full cost of their transfer before they send, track it, and access 24/7 Portuguese-language human support. Remitly is also the first remittance provider in Brazil to offer sending money directly through WhatsApp. 

Brazil’s outbound remittance volume exceeds $3 billion annually, and Brazil connects millions of people to family, friends, and businesses around the world. As international money movement continues to grow, Remitly is building an experience that serves both senders and receivers—expanding ways customers use our network, whether they are sending, receiving, or requesting money. 

Built for how Brazil moves money. Nearly 148 million Brazilians use WhatsApp, and Pix has become part of everyday life. We built the experience around both. Customers can start a transfer in WhatsApp, pay  with Pix, track it, and access 24/7 Portuguese-language support, all in one conversation. 

Send, receive, and request money in one place. Customers in Brazil can now send, receive and request money all through the Remitly app. We’re bringing our customers cross-border money needs into one simple experience.

We’re here for the long term. As we grow in Brazil, we’ll keep listening to our customers, expanding our corridors, and focusing on building a fast, fair and flawless experience. 

Remitly is licensed and regulated by Brazil’s Central Bank, giving customers confidence that their money is in trusted hands from the first transfer.

More than 10 million people 1 around the world already trust Remitly to move their money. Brazil brings another country into that network and gives our customers more ways to use it.
