Event Summary

Remitly Global, Inc. announced the launch of its app within ChatGPT on April 16, 2026, making Remitly the first cross-border money transfer company to establish a presence on the platform. This integration allows customers to explore exchange rates and compare delivery options for international money transfers directly within ChatGPT, without needing to switch platforms. The service is available to logged-in ChatGPT users on various plans sending from the United States, Canada, and the United Kingdom to select destination countries. While transfers are not initiated or completed within ChatGPT, users are directed to the Remitly app or website for secure transactions. This initiative aligns with Remitly's strategy of meeting customers on platforms they frequently use, following its previous integration with Meta Platforms — WhatsApp.
