Pavels S. is a Latvia-based merchant seafarer who works abroad on long rotations. Sending money across borders — from ports, from ships and from home — is part of daily life, and the small differences between apps add up fast over a career.
Pavels started sendfrom.ae as an independent guide for other expats living in the UAE who send money home to their families. Everything on this site is based on hands-on use of the apps described here, on public information from each provider, and on the sources cited at the bottom of each page.
Pavels is not a licensed financial adviser and does not give financial advice. sendfrom.ae is an information website, not a money-transfer service, and does not hold or move funds. See our /affiliate-disclosure and /terms pages for how we handle affiliate links and liability.
