Jingle Pay intends to expand more
The United Arab Emirates (UAE) plays a pivotal role in international commerce, given that it is home to about 9 million expatriates (or around 89% of the population). In an effort to promote financial inclusion, Jingle Pay is focusing on international residents in the area by offering a wide range of convenient financial services, such as multi-currency cards and money transfers.
Jingle Pay CEO and co-founder Amir Fardghassemi described Jingle Pay as a “super-app” that is changing the way people manage their money. Our partnership with MoneyGram extends our network of global remittance destinations and allows us to tap into MoneyGram’s remittance clearing expertise.
The Jingle Pay app is now available in UAE.
