Ideal Users
Vianex is a good fit for users sending money home to one of the countries in Asia, Latin America or Africa that Viamericas enables transfers to. Due to the ability within the app to repeat payments, those who send home money regularly will find the app convenient. For customers who prefer to send money via debit card or credit card payments, another remittance app may be a better fit, as fees can be high and unpredictable for those paying with credit or debit cards.
