ASX ANNOUNCEMENT
14 March 2017
AirPocket Money Transfers live on iOS and new corridor rolloutAirPocket money transfers now available on Apple iOS store
iOS launch significantly enlarges AirPocket's addressable market
Money sending services launched to Bolivia, the Dominican Republic, and Honduras
The AirPocket app's remittance service allows users to send money from the US to Latin American destinations for cash pickup or direct bank deposit. Users can fund their money transfer via credit card, debit card, or bank transfer. Notably, users can fund their remittances by prepaid debit card, a method which is increasingly used by under-banked individuals in lieu of costly cash agents.
AirPocket delivers value to the immigrant community by offering low fees and exchange rate premiums that don't change. AirPocket offers steady forex premiums in response to dissatisfaction with the 'casino'-like experience remittance users face on competitor platforms, which offer forex premiums that fluctuate significantly throughout the day and across the week. The convenience of having an unchanging premium takes a significant step out of remittance users' calculation of the optimal sending platform.
