Flutterwave has secured 20 additional Money Transmitter Licenses (MTLs) in the US, boosting its total to 34 and enabling wider remittance services across many states.
The company’s flagship Send App, which allows Africans in the US to send money home, has been relaunched with these new licenses. This expansion unlocks new corridors to Nigeria, Ghana, and Egypt, making it easier and faster for users to send money without intermediaries.
The onboarding process now features a quick ID check, and the app supports US-issued Visa and Discover cards with enhanced security and smoother user experience.
Flutterwave CEO Olugbenga “GB” Agboola said the move empowers millions of Africans in the US to support their families and contribute to Africa’s economic growth while staying connected globally.
Currently, Send App operates in over 30 US states including DC, Georgia, Maryland, and Michigan, with plans to continue expanding its footprint. This development strengthens Flutterwave’s position as a leading bridge between Africa and the global economy.
