I remember we onboarded a team member in Trinidad a few years back and I completely underestimated how hard it would have been for us to pay her from Jamaica. For about four months straight I had to stand in line at Western Union at the end of every month just to pay her because there was no way to send money to her TTD account from JA. Eventually we figured something out. But this is just one of the problems that @SendanaGlobal now helps to solve.

Walk good. 🇯🇲
