Send App Now Empowers Diaspora Africans in U.S. and Canada to send funds to Africa quickly, efficiently
Flutterwave, Africa’s leading payments technology company, announced the launch of its Send App in the United States and Canada. The Send App enables people in the African diaspora to make faster, easier, and more affordable money transfers to families, friends, and loved ones in Africa.
The launch of Send App in the U.S. and Canada comes at a time when remittances to the African continent have doubled over the last decade, reaching an estimated $100 billion in 2022, according to the United Nations, and supporting the medical bills, education costs, and living expenses of an estimated 200 million African family members.
