Best app to send money from Canada to Ethiopia. It has zero fees if you are sending to someone's account, and the exchange rate is always reasonable. One time I tried to send money but there was a problem with the recipients account and I got my money back without even calling their customer service. They immediately refunded me. Keep up the great work on this app please. I am very pleased and will recommend this app to all of my relatives!
