As one of the Philippines' most trusted and largest micro financial services providers, with over 3,000 physical locations nationwide, Cebuana Lhuillier offers cross-border remittance disbursement through Cash-Pick-Up and Remit-to-Account services available to clients through their branches, agent locations, service providers, and other payout networks and channels.
"The Philippines' remittance market has grown tremendously to become the fourth largest in the world, meaning Filipino citizens are in need of an easier, more dependable, and secured facility for them to send and receive their money, anytime and anywhere," said Jean Henri Lhuillier, Cebuana Lhuillier President and CEO. "This collaboration will allow us to connect to Roxe Inc.'s blockchain network, eliminating key pain points of our clients, while accelerating and optimizing cross-border payments."
