Enable global remittances with no restrictions
Expanding a remittance product can be operationally complex due to the need for local money transfer licenses (MTLs) and complicated operations required to disburse funds across multiple payment methods and geographies. This is expensive.
Portal’s embedded blockchain infrastructure abstracts this complexity away: you can enable recipients globally to receive funds that settles in a matter of seconds.
Low-cost money transfers across borders
Why not use a licensed provider to facilitate transfers, then?
Globally, sending remittance costs 6.18 percent of the average amount ($200) sent or $12.36*. More than 50% of these costs are from intermediary fees.
Transferring funds on the blockchain lower those fees to $0.00 for that same transaction.
Instant settlement of remittances
Funds settle between the sender and recipient instantly 24/7 on the blockchain including the weekends. Forget waiting up to T+5 business days to settle these funds.
