Let's clarify who this blog is for, then why we started it, and what to expect. This blog is for

- consumer who sends money internationally

- reporter or industry expert covering financial services for consumers or migration

- enthusiast fascinated by FinTech, payments, remittances, migration

- employee of a company with stake in remittances.

We started this blog because there is an overwhelming amount of misleading information about the process of sending money, money transmitters, and consumers of such services; it is disseminated both on purpose or due to combination of ignorance and laziness. Also, we couldn't find a similar source of fact-based objective analysis. SaveOnSend's free-usage-no-revenue model allows us to become such objective information portal. We do not favor a particular side between startups or incumbents, bitcoin and non-bitcoin providers, those who say that consumers are "ripped off" by money transmitters and those who think otherwise. SaveOnSend could speak objectively and without fear that an offdended money transmitter could stop paying us affiliate marketing fees or an offended publisher would not write about us.

We are also learning and being inspired by others: Faisal Khan, GrooveHQ, Quick Sprout, Freakonomics, Bridgewater Associates Principles, and of course DILIP RATHA. Our approach will be fact-based and balanced, our confidence in tone will coincide with the amount of conclusive data, and we will always mention and welcome various opinions. Our goal is to learn, help, and inform about the money transfer topic, not to change someone's behavior. We don't share approach of others who claim that they want to change the world and then apply a heavy promotional incentive or negative and misleading PR.

At SaveOnSend, we accept the objective reality that most consumers are already satisfied with how they transfer money and are not that eager to make a change. Understanding consumers deeply with regards to how they make remittance decisions seems both very challenging and exciting to us!

What to expect from our blog: true to our startup name, the overarching theme will always be Saving Money on Sending Money. When it comes to sending money from the US to China, India, Mexico, and Philippines, we will always look for and inform you about the cheapest, most frugal ways. All information on the SaveOnSend blog will be regularly updated, so you could count on us for up-to-date knowledge on your favorite topic. The blog will be structured among main categories, e.g.,

- Destinations: best and cheapest ways to send money from the US to China, India, Mexico, Philippines

- Providers: best and cheapest providers among Western Union, MoneyGram, Xoom, TransFast, Ria Money Transfer, TransferWise, Remitly, ...

- Relevant topics: bitcoin for remittances, migration, consumer segments...

We will have frequent guest posts representing various perspectives: executives from top money transmitters, "think tank" experts on remittances and migration, community representatives with insights on Chinese, Indian, Mexican and Filipinos' approach to sending money.
