Sending money home today
Six things that make a local transfer hard
Sell, withdraw to your bank, then send again
Straight to their account
One payment, direct to the account they already use. No exchange in the middle, no separate withdrawal, no second transfer at the other end.
You find out you mistyped a digit after it’s gone
See the name first
Where the local rail supports it, Kite reads back the registered account holder before you send, so you are looking at a person, not a row of digits.
The real rate shows up on the receipt
The amount, before you confirm
The exact amount and rate, shown before you confirm. No surprises. The fee sits inside that number rather than appearing at the end.
It clears sometime next working day
Settled in seconds
Transfers settle in seconds, over the rails their bank already uses. No correspondent chain, no waiting on a cut-off time.
Your money sits with someone else while it moves
Your wallet. Your control.
Non-custodial. Every payment is signed by you, so funds never leave your control until you confirm. Kite never holds a balance in the middle.
A different provider for every corridor
One app, every local rail
Bank networks in Nigeria, SPEI in Mexico, bKash in Bangladesh. Kite meets each country on its own rail, so there is nothing new to sign up for each time.
None of this needs a bank in the middle. See the three steps →
