Global remittances into Africa has always been a lifeline for most Africans. There's no gainsaying the fact that a lot of Africans would suffer very harsh economic difficulties if they didn't have relatives abroad to send money. This is why remittance services are thriving businesses in the fintech ecosystem. The likes of Chipper Cash figured this out quite early and have continued to expand their service offerings. Last year, the fintech startup raised millions of dollars and launched operations in both the US and the UK to facilitate global remittances to Africa. Indeed, the company is poised to dominate the remittance service industry this year.
