About the UK to Kenya Corridor
For a UK to Kenya launch or expansion, start with the service your customers need: the receiving method, payout currency, beneficiary information and acceptable delivery times. Ask your chosen payout provider to confirm these against your account and target market before committing to the software scope.
Responsibilities before launch
Your firm must establish the permissions, customer checks, disclosures and financial-control obligations applicable to its UK to Kenya service. Confirm destination-market requirements with your legal advisers and payout provider. Remitz supplies software workflows; it does not authorise the corridor, approve your compliance programme or take responsibility for either party’s regulatory obligations.
