One Year after Setting Roots in Mexico, Remitly Expands Deeper into Central and South America

Among the new partners added to Remitly’s network across Latin America are Wal-Mart (including Aurrera, Superama and Suburbia), Farmacias Guadalajara in Mexico, Banco G&T Continental in Guatemala, Banco de Occidente in Honduras and Banco de Crédito del Perú.

Remitly’s relentless focus on customers continues to fuel its growth. “We’re happy to partner with UniTeller as we continue to improve the traditional broken remittance model. We are committed to giving our customers the best possible experience as we respond and adjust to their needs,” said Remitly CEO Matt Oppenheimer. “We launched in Mexico over a year ago and into seven additional countries across Central and South America a little over a month ago. We’re proud to deliver exceptional value to our hard-working customers.”
