 ## The problem we are solving
 
 According to the World Bank, the average cost of sending $200 to Sub-Saharan Africa is 7.9% — the highest in the world. For a Nigerian nurse in Manchester sending £200 home every month, that is roughly £190 a year lost to fees. For a family receiving $100 from a relative in Houston, that is $8 that never makes it to the dinner table.
