The money will be transferred into the recipient’s bank accounts and mobile wallets. They can also receive cash at participating channels in their country.
According to 2C2P, more than 2.1 million foreign nationals are currently working in Thailand. More than 90% of the foreign workers are from Myanmar, Lao and Cambodia.
The number of expats in the country also saw a significant increase from the previous year. Japanese expats increased the most at 4%, followed by Chinese expats.
To cater to the foreign workers, the company introduced the easy2send service in alliance with both local and international financial and non-financial partners, including CB Bank in Myanmar and Wing Money in Cambodia.
