Problem
Remittance agencies in Latin America often face liquidity shortages, hindering their ability to promptly disburse funds to recipients. This can lead to customer dissatisfaction and lost business, particularly on days with high transaction volumes or during bank holidays.

Paisa provides financial solutions tailored to the remittance ecosystem, offering B2B lines of credit to remittance agencies and microloans to remittance recipients. The credit lines enable agencies to maintain sufficient liquidity, ensuring seamless payouts and improved customer service. Microloans, accessible via WhatsApp, empower recipients to better manage their finances and address immediate needs, leveraging remittances as a reliable income stream. Paisa's approach aims to foster financial inclusion and stability within communities reliant on remittance flows.
