Our take
LemFi, previously known as Lemonade Finance, is a fintech platform addressing the challenge of accessing reliable financial services faced by millions of immigrants worldwide. By offering quick onboarding and a multi-currency offering, LemFi allows its users to send, receive, hold, convert, and save in both their country of origin and residence currencies.
Recognizing the limitations faced by traditional banks and neo-banks, LemFi offers instant international transfers at favorable exchange rates with no transfer fees. Initially launched in Canada, growing demand for the company's services has allowed it to expand to the UK, and broaden its African payment channels.
The company has secured good funding from prominent investors like Y-Combinator, Zrosk, Global Founders Capital, and Olive Tree. With plans to expand its product offering across the globe, LemFi will further its mission of providing accessible and transparent financial services to migrant communities worldwide.
