I've been using Remitbee for a while now and it's been a game-changer. Being able to transfer money to my family to Chase bank account is a blessing. Plus, the service is so easy to use, and the support team is great.

Transferred funds to Kenya on Monday, and they arrived at my mother's in 5 minutes. No hassle and is way better than the banks as it is much faster less/no fees, and has better conversion rates. That is my go-to money transfers going forward.... ditch the banks
