We’re changing the way people send money abroad. We’re taking something complicated and making it simple. 

Our people and our technology work together to create faster, easier and lower cost money transfers. We send to 150 countries around the world and have over 4 million happy customers – a number that’s growing every day. After all, 125,000 5★ reviews can’t be wrong!

We believe in helping our customers’ hard work go further. We’ve helped millions of children to go to school, helped thousands of people to receive medical treatment and, every week, we help tens of thousands of people to pay their bills. But most importantly, we do it all with the creativity, imagination and colourful spirit of our customers.

The work we’re doing is making a splash in the fintech industry too. TCV, Accel and Leapfrog Investments have invested $375 million in us – and as early backers of the likes of Facebook, Spotify and Netflix, we know we’re in good company! Not only that, but we’re also a member of TechCity UK’s prestigious FutureFifty. 

Changing the world isn’t easy, but we’re hoping to find the right people to join us on our way. If you think differently, believe in new solutions to old problems and have the drive to make things happen, you might just be what we’re looking for.

Last week, WorldRemit was the proud sponsor of 1MX, a global Asian music festival by MYX Global. We had the opportunity to speak with users and spread the word about our services that empower people to send and receive money globally with ease. 💸

The response from the attendees was incredible and we are proud to have been a part of such a successful event. We witnessed firsthand the power of music and culture in bringing people together, transcending borders and creating unity. 🌎

We would like to express our gratitude to MYX Global for giving us this fantastic opportunity to be a part of such a memorable event. And of course, a big thank you to all the festival-goers who joined us on this incredible journey! 🚀
 
We look forward to continuing to celebrate the beauty of our diverse user base and creating unforgettable moments through future events! Stay tuned 🎉

Today, on the International Day of Family Remittances, we are proudly celebrating the launch of our new WorldRemit campaign! 💫

At Zepz, we know the world would not progress without the movement of people.  The ones who’ve given up roots, to plant new beginnings.  Those improving our lives here, while supporting entire communities back home.  

We know that migrants make a world of difference. 🌍

As a tribute to their efforts, we’re launching our new brand campaign: I*mmigrant.
Yes, it’s written like this on purpose. Yes, to draw attention and for the double meaning. But mostly - and more importantly - it’s written like this with an asterisk to give us an opportunity to bring more positive associations to the word, to wash away the stigma, to bring to life the incredible stories of migrants positively impacting our lives the world over.

Visit our website at https://lnkd.in/euGthxZ8 to dive deeper into the inspiring stories and connect with a community that celebrates diversity, resilience, and the power of unity.

Together, let's embrace the positive impact migrants bring to our world.

Connecting directly with our users is one of our favourite things to do!

We had the honour of sponsoring the incredible #ZimLinkUp event this year, with WorldRemit! It was a wonderful experience to be a part of a vibrant gathering, a true celebration of our shared connections and the Zimbabwean community. 🇿🇼

During the event, we had the chance to speak directly with our customers and hear their WorldRemit stories. The feedback was heartwarming, humbling and inspiring, and we are grateful for the trust and support that our customers have shown us.

We've captured snippets in this video. We're proud to be a part of their journey, and we're committed to making experiences with WorldRemit as seamless and satisfying as possible. 💫

🌍 Strengthening Our South Africa Associate Engineering Program 🚀

Last month, our experienced engineers at Zepz worked hand-in-hand with our Associate Engineers on our Associate Engineering Program in South Africa. The primary goal was to boost our associates' capabilities in building integrations. Here's a brief overview of the highlights gained from this trip!

🌟 Highlights:

• Our teams successfully worked on various integrations that have a key impact on our payout services
• Our Associate Engineers made remarkable progress in a short time with API responses, credential acquisition, and task organisation
• The trip helped to build stronger relationships and improved collaboration between our engineers and associates

The Associate Engineers will continue to build on what they have learned with close guidance from their mentors throughout the course of their time and receive regular support to unlock new levels of learning.

📢 We're Hiring!

Our successful start in South Africa has inspired us to expand our team further. We're thoughtfully scaling our team and hiring experienced Software Engineers in the region. If you're passionate about making an impact and joining a dynamic team, apply now through the links in our comments.

What an incredible evening and honour it was for us to, once again, sponsor the Zimbabwe Achievers Awards (ZAA) this Saturday. Now in it’s 12th year, the ZAA acknowledges the incredible contributions Zimbabwean’s have made in media, sport, business, science and beyond, at an amazing event.

Congratulations to all of the winners and thanks to our very own Ritu Soni for presenting the awards to the winners on behalf of us all at WorldRemit.

Ramadan Mubarak to everyone observing this special time of year! ☪️

At  Zepz, we're proud to support our communities and help them make a positive impact back home. Our marketing team has been hard at work creating campaigns that connect us with the communities we serve in a meaningful way. With Ramadan representing a major seasonal remittance peak in Muslim-majority receive markets, we're excited to optimise this opportunity and make it easier for our customers to send fast and easy money transfers. 🚀

To celebrate the spirit of giving and sharing, we've partnered with two charities - the Edhi Foundation in Pakistan and Jood in Morocco. For every money transfer sent to Pakistan and Morocco during Ramadan, we're offering a free iftar meal to those in need, with a goal of distributing 30,000 meals in total. 🥙

We're thrilled to share a message of gratitude from the Edhi Foundation: "WorldRemit has been a keen supporter and donor to the Edhi Foundation for the past few years, and we look forward to their continued support in the future. We would like to thank WorldRemit for their generosity and donations to the Edhi Foundation's daily free meal services during the month of Ramadan 2023." - Muhammad Farooq 💜

We're reaching out to Muslim communities in our main send countries through various marketing channels, such as PR, digital, CRM, TV, community engagement, and influencers. Our goal is to spread the word about WorldRemit and Sendwave (International Remittance) and continue to make a difference during this special season.

Once again, Ramadan Mubarak to everyone celebrating. We look forward to continuing to serve our communities and make a positive impact together. 💫

Our CEO Mark Lenhard, was recently interviewed by TechFinancials about our plans for expansion and talent acquisition across Africa 🚀.

Africa is a rapidly growing market with incredible potential. We're keen to make the most of this potential, drive growth across the continent and expand our reach to better serve our users. By acquiring new companies and talent, we believe we can achieve this goal whilst also creating new job opportunities.

Mark says in the interview:

“We will strive to provide products and services that will serve the world from SA.
 
The only way we can really serve our customers well is to employ some of them. We have found phenomenal talent in South Africa.
 
We will probably hire 75 more people, mainly in Johannesburg and Cape Town”
