Our take
Since its inception in 2011 Remitly has focussed on helping immigrants to send money across the world faster, cheaper and easier. The company has grown exponentially since then and now operate across multiple continents. Remitly put down most of their success from putting their customers first.
The emergence of digital banks with low transaction fees cross-country has increased the competition in a space whereas previously Remitly was dominant for many years. The company must continue to innovate on product to make sure they're the go-to place for these types of payments.
However, Remitly continues to partner with exciting companies and improve their service for loyal customers. The company is setting its sights beyond its core remittance service, such as through recent introduction of Passbook, an app that allows customers to access digital banking through a partner bank.
