EzyRemit Partners with Thunes to Enhance Real-Time Global Remittances for Expat Communities

Thunes, the global payments platform known as the Smart Superhighway for international money movement, has announced a new strategic partnership with EzyRemit, a rapidly expanding digital remittance provider. The collaboration aims to deliver fast, secure, and cost-effective cross-border payment solutions for expatriate communities worldwide.

With operational hubs across Australia, Japan, New Zealand, Canada, the United States, and Vietnam, EzyRemit already facilitates payments to more than 150 countries. Now, through direct integration with Thunes’ proprietary Direct Global Network, EzyRemit customers can access real-time transfers to billions of endpoints—including mobile wallets, bank accounts, prepaid cards, and cash pickup points—in over 45 countries across Asia, Africa, Europe, and the Americas.

This integration enhances EzyRemit’s ability to provide seamless, transparent, and efficient cross-border transactions. It significantly improves the user experience for today’s digital-first consumers, offering a faster and more reliable way for individuals to send money to family, friends, or business partners around the globe.

The collaboration is especially impactful in high-volume outbound payment corridors such as Australia to the Philippines, where millions of expatriates and overseas workers regularly send money back home to support loved ones. In 2025, over US$183 million is expected to be sent from Australia to the Philippines through digital remittances, with the amount projected to grow by more than 8% each year until 2029.

With Thunes’ robust real-time payment infrastructure, EzyRemit is now better equipped to meet the needs of these communities, ensuring transfers are fast, simple and secure, with a strong springboard for further global expansion. Thunes’ Fortress Compliance Platform provides peace of mind over the security of transactions, and the Thunes’ SmartX Treasury System supports transparent and flexible FX management.

Andrew Stewart, Chief Revenue Officer at Thunes, said: “EzyRemit’s focus on providing seamless, real-time cross-border payments to empower overseas communities aligns perfectly with Thunes’ mission to enable the next billion end users to participate in the global economy. Together, we’re making international money movement faster, more transparent and more inclusive.”

Allan Nguyen, Co-founder of EzyRemit, added: “Our alliance with Thunes unlocks endless new opportunities for us and our customers. We’re now able to deliver seamless, real-time payments to more parts of the world than ever before. Our mission is to empower overseas communities with fast, secure, and affordable financial solutions, and the ability to leverage Thunes’ trusted Network helps us to make that a global reality.”
