About

Living and working far away from loved ones is hard. Sending money back home shouldn't be. We started SendFriend to reduce the costs and improve the experience for the millions of overseas Filipino workers who send money home to support their families. Migrant workers sent home $650 billion in remittances last year and they paid a staggering $45 billion in fees ( 7% per transaction). Service took 3-5 days. SendFriend is a seamless mobile/web remittance service leveraging the blockchain because we are passionate about customers.
