HomeSend, WorldRemit Join Hands for Money Transfer

¬eServGlobal has announced a new agreement for its HomeSend remittance service with WorldRemit.

WorldRemit is an online platform enabling migrants and expats to send money to family and friends in more than 100 receiving countries. With 26 sending countries, WorldRemit is said to be the world's largest dedicated online money transfer business.

The agreement has an initial focus on transactions between Europe and Africa.

Paolo Montessori, eServGlobal COO commented, "HomeSend is delighted to work with organisations like WorldRemit to help them reach end users via mobile services."

"In emerging markets such as Africa, the last mile of service is crucial for international remittance. The HomeSend service can provide an efficient way for existing money transfer services to extend their receiving capabilities by leveraging existing mobile infrastructure and agent networks."

HomeSend has a leading footprint in Africa, encompassing almost all leading operator groups on the continent.

HomeSend is a service offered by BICS, its business partner, based on eServGlobal technology.

HomeSend is the only mobile-centric international remittance hub endorsed by the GSMA.
