Stars
India and Philippines corridors are Remitly's powerhouse markets, driving 25% YoY growth in 2025 and accounting for roughly 55% of Remitly's $1.02B revenue in FY2025 (~$561M); market share among digital-first providers exceeds 60% in both corridors.
Users keep shifting from cash agents to mobile apps, with digital volume up 28% YoY in 2025; Remitly uses scale to offer ~0.8-1.2% better effective exchange rates and sustained high marketing spend-about $120M in FY2025-to defend share and deter smaller rivals.
Mobile-to-mobile wallet transfers-Remitly's fastest-growing segment-surpassed 150 million transactions in FY2025, driven by unbanked users in Southeast Asia and Africa; integration with GCash and M-Pesa lifted mobile-routed market share to roughly 42% in targeted corridors.
Remitly for Business API is a Star: B2B revenue jumped 40% in FY2025 to $240M, driven by high share in the disbursement-as-a-service niche and integrations with 120 fintechs and enterprises.
The unit scaled fast by end-2025, capturing ~35% share in key corridors, but needs sustained R&D spend (FY2025 R&D $85M) to outcompete SWIFT-era rails.
LatAm Corridor Expansion reaching 30 percent market penetration
Remitly has reached ~30% penetration in the LatAm corridor (US→Mexico and US→Central America) by late 2025, driven by migration-led volume growth and localized marketing; remittances in these corridors grew ~8-10% YoY to $85B in 2025, supporting scale despite high CAC.
Deep payout networks and faster rails made Remitly the primary choice for Hispanic migrants, yielding ARPU up ~12% and lifetime value estimates exceeding acquisition costs by 3x in 2025.
- 30% corridor penetration (late 2025)
- $85B corridor remittances (2025) ~+8-10% YoY
- ARPU +12% (2025) and LTV:CAC ≈3:1
- High CAC offset by structural migration-driven growth
Subscription-based Premium Tiers with 2 million active subscribers
Remitly's subscription-based premium tiers reached 2.0 million active subscribers in FY2025, driving a remittance-plus shift by offering lower fees and 30-50% faster transfer speeds for monthly fees, capturing dominant share among frequent senders.
It's a high-growth "Star" needing heavy promotional spend-marketing up 40% YoY in 2025-to convert pay-as-you-go users into recurring revenue and support unit economics.
- 2.0M subscribers (FY2025)
- 30-50% faster transfers vs standard
- 40% YoY increase in promo spend (2025)
- Higher ARPU and improved retention vs PAYG
India/Philippines and LatAm are Stars: together drove $561M of Remitly's $1.02B FY2025 revenue (55%), grew 25% YoY, and delivered ARPU +12% with LTV:CAC ≈3:1; mobile transfers hit 150M txns and mobile wallet share ~42%; B2B APIs reached $240M (+40% YoY); FY2025 marketing $120M, R&D $85M.
