RED Technologies Ltd has partnered with the United Nations Capital Development Fund (UNCDF) to launch POOJI, a digital remittance and financial inclusion platform for Bangladeshi migrant workers and their families.

The initiative aims to reduce high remittance costs and improve access to formal financial services, according to a press release.

The mobile application offers a secure, affordable, and user-friendly way to send and receive money, featuring biometric-enabled e-KYC and two-factor authentication (2FA) for enhanced security.

Implemented under the Shafal Programme -- a collaboration between the Embassy of Switzerland and UNCDF -- POOJI forms part of UNCDF’s Leaving No One Behind in the Digital Era initiative.

Tanvir Alam, chairman of RED Technologies, said, “This partnership exemplifies our shared commitment to advancing financial inclusion across underserved communities.”

Khandaker Erfan, CEO of RED Technologies, added, “POOJI is more than a remittance app; it’s a gateway to financial inclusion that unlocks economic potential for Bangladeshi families worldwide.”

The platform will go live in early June, initially covering the remittance corridor between the United Kingdom and Bangladesh, with planned expansion to the UAE, Saudi Arabia, Malaysia, Singapore, the United States, and Italy.

To ensure reliable service, RED Technologies is collaborating with NEC Money Bangladesh and NEC Money Transfer Limited UK as receiving partners.

Developed by Redcube Global Limited UK, the Redcube app will support migrant workers in managing remittances and small businesses.

Beyond transfers, POOJI provides digital savings and micro-loan products, business tools, and financial literacy training, enabling families to manage funds effectively, grow small enterprises, and strengthen household resilience.
