Remittances are characterized as financial lifelines sent home by migrant workers. In contrast, digital remittances are all of these international money transactions carried out online by a migrant population. Remittances often consist of money transfers between residents and non-residents as well as wages sent back to the place of origin by temporary foreign employees. It is very important to the current financial ecology. Digital remittances firmly emerged in 2020 despite a decline in overall remittances, and they continue to provide significant diverse benefits to those able to take use of them.

In that there doesn't appear to be a requirement for an in-person visit to a store or office to start a transfer, digital remittances are comparable to a person-to-person version of e-commerce. A mobile phone, tablet, or computer, together with a web browser or an app, are required for sending a digital remittance. Moreover, a digital finance channel is required. In addition, during the past few years, the advent of digital-first money transfer organizations (MTOs) has boosted digital remittances, and the existing MTOs have quickly responded by adding digital initiation and financing capacities immediately.

Key Drivers & Trends

The proliferation of the digital platform for remittance is expected to encourage customers to move toward online transactions. Moreover, the rising penetration of mobile devices across the globe in recent years has encouraged the adoption of digital technology in remittance services and cross-border payments. Customers across the globe are also shifting toward digital remittance services as they help reduce the money transfer time and remittance costs. Moreover, digital remittance services offer high privacy and protection for consumers’ money.

The endless chains of mediators, hidden charges, and paperwork involved in money transfer made the process costly and arduous. However, the adoption of digital remittance services has helped businesses and customers enjoy more affordable, faster, and value-added money transfer services. The costs involved in transferring money have reduced drastically as a result of healthier competition between market players.

The rising popularity of digital remittance services among low-wage migrant workers, who use these services to send money to their families, is compelling several governing bodies to pay attention to and regulate the digital remittance industry. Moreover, foreign remittances play an important role in the economic development of emerging markets. Due to this, authorized regulators control and monitor money transfer fees to encourage customers to continue using digital remittance services and effectively contribute to their home country’s economic growth. These factors are expected to contribute to the market growth over the forecast period.

Restraints & Challenges

The key restraints and challenges in the digital remittance market are the lack of awareness about digital remittance services, the high cost of digital remittance services, and the lack of interoperability between digital remittance service providers. Lack of awareness about digital remittance services is a major challenge in the digital remittance market. There is a lack of awareness about the benefits of digital remittance services among consumers. This is because digital remittance services are new and not many people are aware of them. As a result, many people are still using traditional remittance services, which are more expensive and less efficient. The high cost of digital remittance services is another challenge in the digital remittance market. The cost of digital remittance services is higher than the cost of traditional remittance services. This is because digital remittance services are new and the infrastructure required to provide them is expensive. The lack of interoperability between digital remittance service providers is another challenge in the digital remittance market. There is a lack of interoperability between the different digital remittance service providers. This means that the different service providers cannot connect with each other and this limits the efficiency of digital remittance services.
