We've partnered with EzyRemit to make it easier for people moving to New Zealand to get financially set up as soon as they arrive. Whether it's students, migrants, or travellers, having access to a local account is key. Now it's simpler than ever.
EzyRemit is an international money transfer platform used by customers around the world to send funds quickly, affordably, and securely to over 112 countries. Their services include real-time tracking, multiple payment options, and 24/7 support - with a strong focus on education-related payments like tuition, accommodation, and insurance.
Through this partnership, eligible EzyRemit customers can now register their interest in an Emerge account before they arrive. Once they're in New Zealand, they can open their account in minutes straight from their phone, with no paperwork or branch visits. This means they're ready to pay rent, go shopping, or receive funds the moment they land.
EzyRemit continues to handle the cross-border payment experience, sending money into and out of New Zealand safely and efficiently. Emerge provides the local account to make those funds usable from day one.
It's one small change that makes a big difference for people settling into life in Aotearoa.
