A better way to send money
Azimo was founded in 2012 with a strong social purpose: to make it faster, cheaper and easier for people to support their loved ones back home.
Imagine if your bank took 7% of every transfer you made.
Sounds crazy, doesn’t it? But it’s reality for hard-working people who send money abroad.
According to the World Bank, the average cost of a single remittance payment is still around 7% of the amount sent.
Hard-working people deserve more. That’s why we created a faster, cheaper way to send money to the people you love.
We’re using technology to make financial services affordable and available to all.
