Facilitates fee-free international money transfers

About Pomelo

Pomelo simplifies international money transfers, focusing on markets like the Philippines, Mexico, and India. It provides a mobile app and a card system that allows users in the U.S. to send money to family members abroad instantly and without fees. Recipients receive a Pomelo card, enabling them to access funds immediately without cash pickup. A unique aspect of Pomelo is that it uses credit for transfers, which helps users build their credit scores in the U.S. Each purchase made by the recipient contributes to the sender's credit score, offering a dual benefit. Pomelo's goal is to provide a seamless, cost-effective money transfer service while also promoting financial growth for its users.
