"Incredibly simple, low cost and arrived to my friend in Uganda within minutes. Great service!"
Sarah Duncan • 2 months ago
"I needed to get money to our housekeeper in Uganda from Canada. The only way she can receive money is through Mobile Money. A friend told me about WorldRemit. Within hours our housekeeper received the money on her mobile phone from my phone on a boat in British Columbia. Because it was my first experience with WorldRemit, there was no charge! Fantastic service."
