Have you ever experienced hidden costs in cross border payments? We're pretty sure the answer is yes! Unpredictability is a common weak spot in the payments industry, according to Aviv Amar from our Business Development team. At Neema - Better Than a Bank, we believe in full transparency. Here's what that means for our clients: Fixed Exchange Rates: Many transfer methods determine the FX rate based on when funds are received by the beneficiary, exposing you to currency fluctuations, especially in cases of prolonged transfer times. At Neema, the exchange rate is set at the time of sending. No surprises, no currency risk. No Hidden Fees: With other services, you might face additional deductions from beneficiary banks or correspondent banks. With Neema, what you send is what your recipient receives. No unexpected costs or deductions. Transparency is more than just clarity—it's about empowering you to make informed decisions and ensuring your money reaches its destination as intended. Experience clarity and confidence with every transfer. DM us to schedule a meeting and discover how Neema can optimize your international payments. 🌐 https://lnkd.in/dFFSW5Qz #Transparency #HiddenCosts #FXrate #fintech #crossborderpayments
