Running a business with distributed teams and vendors across Africa revealed the significant hurdles of cross-border payments. Payments often took days—or even weeks—to clear, leaving funds stuck in bureaucratic processes. Setting up international bank accounts was a time-consuming ordeal filled with endless paperwork and delays.

Additionally, fluctuating exchange rates meant losing money on every transaction, compounded by the high fees of traditional banking systems. Tax compliance became a constant source of stress as we struggled to meet local regulations, risking costly penalties for non-compliance.

We knew there had to be a better solution. That’s why we built WorkRemits—a platform designed to eliminate these challenges. By simplifying multi-currency payroll and payments, WorkRemits allows businesses to pay their global teams and vendors instantly. Our platform ensures full compliance with tax, social security, and benefits deductions, while protecting businesses from the unpredictable losses of exchange rate fluctuations.
