THE CHALLENGE
Traditional remittance is broken
Every year, families lose billions to remittance fees. Between the banks, the middlemen, and the hidden FX markups, you're lucky if 90% of what you send actually arrives. That's money taken from the people who need it most.
Upesa changes that. P2P transfers between Upesa users are completely free — no fee on either end, no FX markup, no delay. Just money moving at the speed of the internet.
