How It Works
It works exactly like you think it would:

2. You specify the amount of money you want to send, the delivery and payout options, and the beneficiary’s information, such as name and city
3. You are redirected via a secure link and pay through our page
You’re done!
Note that existing customers will have less steps to follow, so if you’re new to Ria, know that the process will only get faster.
Plus: your first transaction is zero-fee.
