Why do you think you should win this category?:
Business partners can find an all-in-one solution without the need to look for individual partners. Partners, don’t need to invest in development of a digital remittance solution, they don’t need to invest in developing a compliance program, to partner to get remittance licenses, or to build an international payment network. They only need to focus on marketing and promoting the service.
Today, we have 20+ companies, including remittance and banking institutions, retailers, and international payers in the U.S., Canada, Europe, Latin America, and Asia, that have partnered up with UniTeller or shown interest in this solution.

ulink for the children
uLink for the children in partnership with Synergeia Foundation, was born to help promote education in the Philippines. When people send money using uLink they will be helping support students and teachers development programs of Panghulo Elementary School in the Philippines. Through this program classroom buildings will be built to fight struggles from floods allowing children to continue their education and achieve their dreams.This initiative not only will provide support to people in need, but also, will establish a connection between the Filipino sender in the U.S. and their loved ones in the Philippines by turning their money transfers into a high social impact action for their community. Supporting education will also raise opportunities of growth and will impact the future economy of one of the most important remittance receiving countries.
