Send with Text turns cross-border payments into one click global money movement.

Forget account numbers. Forget routing codes. Forget wondering whether you typed something wrong. With Send with Text, customers enter an amount, choose how they want to pay, and hit send. Remitly texts their recipient a link, and thanks to the vast Remitly money movement network that reaches over 6 billion people worldwide, the recipient simply chooses where the money should land right from their phone. The funds are on their way — to their bank, a mobile wallet, or the corner store down the street — within minutes.

“Sending money around the world shouldn’t feel like homework,” said Sebastian Gunningham, CEO of Remitly. “You should be able to send it the way you’d send a text — because now you can with Remitly.”

The result: sending money, reduced to the only two things that ever mattered — who, and how much.
