Pomelo, a fintech innovator combining consumer credit with international money transfers, has introduced Pomelo Points, the first-ever rewards program for sending money overseas.
“Today marks another industry first – we’re introducing the only points program in remittance,” said Eric Velasquez Frenkiel, Pomelo’s founder and CEO. “By combining zero-fee transfers with the ability to earn points, we’re helping customers send extra joy to their loved ones, all while building their financial future.”
With Pomelo Points, customers sending money to the Philippines can earn rewards that can be converted into digital gift codes for rides, food delivery, and more—thanks to Pomelo’s partnership with Grab, Southeast Asia’s leading super-app.
Users earn one point per dollar sent via debit card and two points per dollar when using their Pomelo Mastercard®.
This new program adds to Pomelo’s existing industry-leading features, including:
- The first send now, pay later option for international money transfers
- The only credit-building solution for global remittances
- The most secure bank transfer service
Pomelo Points is now available to all Pomelo users sending money to the Philippines, with plans for expansion throughout 2025.
