How Big Did Matt Oppenheimer Say Remitly Was?

Close to 800 people, in offices in Seattle, London, Nicaragua, and the Philippines. Matt Oppenheimer, cofounder and CEO, tells What Fuels You he started Remitly in 2011 after working in banking in London and Kenya, where he saw how hard it was for people to send money home. He calls it the largest private digital remittance company in the United States. The episode intro says Remitly had raised over $200 million by then. Oppenheimer describes the headcount while talking about how different his job had become, and he names those four offices when the host asks where the team sits.
