# Remitly: AI strategy

Last updated: Oct 15, 2026

*AI as the cost lever of a remittance network: ML fraud scoring since 2017, an AI support assistant that most customers never escalate, and under a new CEO in 2026 an explicit plan to hold headcount flat while revenue grows 20%.*

## How is Remitly using AI?

Remitly's AI strategy runs through its cost base: an AI virtual support assistant that resolves issues four times faster with only 3% of customers asking for a human, machine-learning fraud models since 2017 and an upgraded AI fraud model that cut Q4 2025 transaction losses to a record 7.3 basis points of send volume. New CEO Sebastian Gunningham said in May 2026 that AI-enabled streamlining had removed more than 250 roles and that headcount would stay below plan while revenue grew 20% to $495.2 million in Q2 2026.

## Flagship platform: AI-powered virtual support assistant

Launched in 2024 alongside an AI-enhanced help centre, the assistant handles tasks from cancelling or amending a transfer to tracking its status. Remitly says it guides customers to resolution four times faster, cutting average time spent with support by 75% while matching human agents on customer satisfaction across phone and chat; only 3% of customers choose to speak to a person and first-contact resolution exceeds 74%. Alongside it, machine-learning fraud models evaluate tens of thousands of transactions an hour and a platform-wide AI fraud model deployed in late 2025 drove record-low transaction losses.

## Key points

- Remitly's AI-powered virtual support assistant, launched in 2024, resolves customer issues four times faster and cuts average support time by 75% while matching human agents on satisfaction; Remitly says only 3% of customers choose to speak to a human and first-contact resolution is over 74%. More than 95% of 2024 transactions completed without any support contact.
- Machine learning has been used against fraud since 2017; models now evaluate tens of thousands of transactions an hour, and on the Q4 2025 call co-founder Matt Oppenheimer said a recently upgraded AI fraud model drove record-low transaction losses of 7.3 basis points of send volume and roughly $10 million of incremental revenue less transaction expense versus forecast.
- Sebastian Gunningham, a former Amazon senior vice president, became CEO on February 19, 2026, with Oppenheimer staying as chairman; on his first call (May 2026) he reported more than 250 headcount reductions and over 50 roles redeployed through AI-enabled streamlining year to date, and set AI-driven real-time pricing across 5,000-plus corridors as a near-term goal.
- By the Q2 2026 call Gunningham framed AI's benefits as speed, trust and cost, said cost was 'the clearest AI win so far', that AI-driven productivity had let Remitly hold headcount below plan, and that the company tracks AI usage 'down to the individuals' and is launching agents for internal tasks; technology and development expense fell to 11.2% of revenue.
- Q2 2026: active customers 10.2 million (up 20%), send volume $23.5 billion (up 27%), revenue $495.2 million (up 20%), adjusted EBITDA $114.7 million (up 79%), net income $205.9 million including a $140.6 million tax benefit; Remitly Business passed 25,000 users.
- Remitly One, launched September 9, 2025, bundles Remitly Flex ('send now, pay later' up to $250), a Remitly Wallet with USDC holdings and a planned US line of credit from spring 2026, moving the company beyond remittances; the FY2025 10-K describes an 'artificial intelligence-powered' marketing system for multi-product engagement.
- The 10-K (filed February 18, 2026) lists machine-learning-based fraud scoring, electronic KYC and real-time payment authentication as unified risk systems across products; Remitly had over 3,200 full-time-equivalent employees at end-2025 and closed its Israeli R&D hub in February 2026, cutting about 110 jobs.

## Regulators it answers to

- [FinCEN](https://www.bankingnewsai.com/ai-regulation/fincen) — Remitly is registered with FinCEN as a money services business under the Bank Secrecy Act and must run a risk-based AML programme; its ML fraud scoring and electronic KYC are the systems that meet those obligations, and FinCEN's deepfake alert addresses the AI-enabled fraud those models face. See [FIN-2024-Alert004 (Deepfake Media)](https://www.bankingnewsai.com/ai-regulation/documents/fincen-alert-2024-deepfake-media).
- State money-transmitter regulators — Remitly holds money-transmitter licences in the 49 US states that require them plus DC and US territories, which restrict investment of customer funds and require state examinations.
- [CFPB](https://www.bankingnewsai.com/ai-regulation/cfpb) — The CFPB enforces Regulation E's Remittance Transfer Rule (disclosures, error resolution, cancellation rights) that governs every Remitly transfer from the US; its guidance on chatbots in consumer finance applies to the AI support assistant that only 3% of customers escalate past. See [CFPB Chatbots in Consumer Finance (issue spotlight, 2023)](https://www.bankingnewsai.com/ai-regulation/documents/cfpb-chatbots-in-consumer-finance-2023).
- [UK (BoE / PRA / FCA)](https://www.bankingnewsai.com/ai-regulation/uk) — Remitly holds an FCA payment institution licence (e-money licence pending for wallet services) and is bound by the Consumer Duty; the FCA's AI update sets expectations for firms using AI in customer support and fraud decisions. See [FCA AI Update (Apr 2024)](https://www.bankingnewsai.com/ai-regulation/documents/fca-ai-update-2024), [FCA PS22/9 Consumer Duty](https://www.bankingnewsai.com/ai-regulation/documents/fca-ps22-9-consumer-duty).
- Central Bank of Ireland — Remitly's Irish payment institution licence passports its services across the EEA and subjects it to the revised Consumer Protection Code; wallet services await an extension of that licence.
- [SEC](https://www.bankingnewsai.com/ai-regulation/sec) — As a NASDAQ-listed company reporting AI-driven headcount reductions, fraud-model gains and AI productivity on its calls and in its 10-K, Remitly's AI claims fall under the SEC's AI-disclosure recommendations and examination focus. See [Investor Advisory Committee AI disclosure recommendation](https://www.bankingnewsai.com/ai-regulation/documents/sec-iac-ai-disclosure-recommendation-2025).

## What the record suggests

### The AI story is a margin story with headcount numbers attached

Remitly discloses what most fintechs leave implicit: more than 250 roles removed, 50 redeployed, headcount held below plan and technology expense down to 11.2% of revenue, while revenue grew 20%. The CEO calls cost 'the clearest AI win so far'.

### Fraud is where AI produced a hard dollar figure

The upgraded fraud model is credited with a specific outcome, record-low losses of 7.3 basis points and about $10 million of incremental RLTE in one quarter, which makes it one of the few AI claims in the sector tied to a reported line item.

### Support automation is measured by who escapes it

Remitly's chosen metrics are the 3% of customers who ask for a human and the 95%-plus of transactions that never generate a contact; both are deflection measures, so satisfaction parity is the claim to watch.

### Leadership changed, the AI thesis intensified

Oppenheimer's AI programme was fraud and workflows; Gunningham, with an Amazon platform background, reorganised around smaller teams and 'AI embedded everywhere' within 90 days and closed a development hub the same month he arrived.

### Product expansion raises the regulatory surface AI must cover

Remitly One adds credit (Flex, a planned US line of credit) and wallets with USDC to a money-transmission business; those bring ECOA, e-money and crypto rules on top of the Remittance Transfer Rule the current AI systems were built for.

## FAQ

### How does Remitly use AI in customer support?

Remitly launched an AI-powered help centre and a virtual support assistant in 2024 that can cancel or amend transfers, track status and resolve common issues. Remitly says the assistant resolves issues four times faster, cuts average time spent with support by 75% and matches human agents on customer satisfaction across phone and chat; only 3% of customers choose to speak to a person and first-contact resolution is above 74%. More than 95% of 2024 transactions completed without any support contact.

### Did Remitly cut jobs because of AI?

Yes, by its own account. On the May 2026 earnings call CEO Sebastian Gunningham reported more than 250 headcount reductions and over 50 roles redeployed year to date through AI-enabled organisational streamlining, calling it 'a deliberate choice' based on confidence that AI lets a leaner organisation do the same or more work. Separately, Remitly closed its Israeli R&D hub in February 2026, cutting about 110 jobs. It had over 3,200 full-time equivalents at the end of 2025.

### How does Remitly use AI to fight fraud?

Remitly has used machine learning against fraud since 2017; its models evaluate tens of thousands of transactions an hour to spot identity theft and card fraud while reducing interventions on legitimate customers. A platform-wide fraud model upgraded with AI and integrated data in late 2025 drove Q4 2025 transaction losses to a record low of 7.3 basis points of send volume and roughly $10 million of incremental revenue less transaction expense versus forecast.

### Is Remitly a bank?

No. Remitly is a NASDAQ-listed money transmitter: registered with FinCEN as a money services business, licensed in the 49 US states that require it plus DC and US territories, and licensed as a payment institution by the UK FCA and the Central Bank of Ireland (for the EEA). Remitly One, launched in September 2025, adds a wallet, a 'send now, pay later' product and a planned US line of credit, but Remitly holds no bank charter.

### Who regulates Remitly?

In the US, FinCEN (AML programme as a money services business), state money-transmitter regulators and the CFPB, which enforces the Remittance Transfer Rule on disclosures and error resolution; in the UK the FCA, including the Consumer Duty; in Ireland and the EEA the Central Bank of Ireland; and as a listed company the SEC. Its AI support assistant and fraud models operate inside those regimes.

### Who is Remitly's CEO and what is the AI plan?

Sebastian Gunningham, a former Amazon senior vice president and S-Team member, became CEO on February 19, 2026, succeeding co-founder Matt Oppenheimer, who is now chairman. Gunningham's plan organises AI benefits as speed, trust and cost: smaller autonomous teams, AI embedded across operations, support and product development, real-time AI pricing across 5,000-plus corridors, and headcount held below plan while revenue grew 20% to $495.2 million in Q2 2026.

### How big is Remitly in 2026?

In Q2 2026 Remitly passed 10 million quarterly active customers for the first time (10.2 million, up 20%), moved $23.5 billion in send volume (up 27%), earned $495.2 million of revenue (up 20%) and $114.7 million of adjusted EBITDA (up 79%), and reported net income of $205.9 million including a $140.6 million tax benefit.
