Remitly Global Expands Its WhatsApp Send Offering To Add Additional Country Support, New Request Money Offering In Mexico Under Collaboration With Elektra

Remitly Global, Inc. (NASDAQ: RELY), a trusted provider of financial services that transcend borders, today announced the expansion of its WhatsApp Send offering to include additional country support and a new "Request Money" offering that allows recipients to initiate transfers, marking a meaningful step in Remitly's evolution from a trusted financial platform built for cross-border lives.

The money movement experience no longer has to start with the sender. In partnership with Elektra, Remitly has launched "Request Money," now allowing recipients who bank with Elektra in Mexico to initiate a transfer request directly. The sender receives a secure checkout link generated by the recipient via Elektra and can initiate the transfer in seconds — all via WhatsApp, no app download required.
