Living and working far away from loved ones is hard. Sending money back home shouldn't be. We started SendFriend to reduce the costs and improve the experience for the millions of overseas Filipino workers who send money home to support their families. With roots at The World Bank, MIT, MoneyGram, and Harvard Business School, our founding team came together to put our customers first.
