Local Start-up, OrbitRemit, Continues Business Momentum in Australia

Australia’s and New Zealand’s most-trusted money transfer platform offers a smart choice for diaspora transferring money overseas

Sydney, Australia – OrbitRemit, a trusted international money transfer service used by thousands of customers across Australia, continues its expansion across Australia, launching 10 new markets in the first half of 2025. Providing secure, low-cost money transfers (up to 80% cheaper than traditional banking options), OrbitRemit offers Filipino Australians a smarter way to send money overseas to support family and loved ones.

Founded in New Zealand and already popular across Australia, OrbitRemit supports customers with seamless cross-border payments to over 50 countries, including the Philippines, India, Nepal, Pakistan, Sri Lanka, Bhutan and Vietnam.

“I’m incredibly proud that OrbitRemit has become a go-to provider for migrants, expats, students, and small businesses in Australia and New Zealand,” said Tommy Heptinstall, Co-Founder of OrbitRemit. “When we launched, we recognised that traditional remittance providers were not adequately servicing migrants’ needs. Simply, there had to be a better way – and that mission has served us true our entire journey.”

As of July 2025, OrbitRemit has sent over several billion dollars from more than 250,000 customers across Australia and New Zealand and continues to grow year-on-year. OrbitRemit delivers award-winning value and has recently earned recognition as:

Working alongside a range of international partners, transfers are often settled within minutes and customers have a choice of sending to a mobile wallet, direct to bank account, or cash pickup.

“Reliable, fast, and always there when I need to send money home. It’s like a bridge to my family,” said Jane Crame. “It feels good knowing my money is safe and my family gets it quickly. So easy to use. I can send money to the Philippines right from my phone in minutes. I wouldn’t use anyone else.”

OrbitRemit is registered with AUSTRAC as an independent remittance dealer, ensuring the highest standards of compliance, security, and customer protection.
