How to capitalise on international money transfers this Diwali
The festival of Diwali is all about spreading love, light, appreciation and coming together with family to celebrate with a message of hope and prosperity.
With over 32 million Indians living overseas and most still unable to travel due to the pandemic, sending money to family and friends in India has become a popular way to send well wishes of wealth and spread happiness for Diwali.
In fact, India remains a popular destination for money transfers on WorldRemit and Diwali is one of the busiest times of the year for sending money from all regions of the world.
There are various ways to send money to loved ones in India and financial technology companies like WorldRemit offer a faster alternative to share gifts with friends and family from the comfort of your home
Scott Eddington, Managing Director of Asia-Pacific at WorldRemit, said: “After a tough two years globally, we are sending well wishes to all celebrating Diwali with friends and family, together or from far.”
“No matter how or where you choose to celebrate Diwali this year, there are still plenty of ways to share your light from abroad which is why we are proud to support the 200,000 New Zealanders of Indian heritage and their families back home by offering a cheaper way to send money,” added Eddington.
Eddington has the following four tips for using WorldRemit to send money for Diwali:
- Download the WorldRemit app - To be able to send money transfers on the go, download the free WorldRemit app from the Google Play Store or App Store. Enter the promo code ‘3FREE’ for your first three fee-free transfers.
