The real cost stack
Most people only see “the fee.” A simple checklist also checks:
- Upfront fee vs % of principal
- FX markup vs mid-market (educational comparison only)
- Speed vs price tradeoffs
- Cash-out / pickup costs on the receiving side
- Repeat-send patterns that quietly drain annual totals
What the Remittance Literacy Starter includes
- 7-day remittance hygiene checklist
- Fee comparison worksheet
- Corridor notes (educational)
- Red-flag list (scams / pressure tactics)
- Clear disclaimer: NOT financial, tax, legal, FX, banking, or money-transmission advice
Clear disclaimer
Educational worksheets only. Verify rates, licenses, and rules with licensed providers and official sources before you send.
