Abhi (YC S21), through its Middle East chapter, has joined hands with LuLu Financial Holdings, a renowned global financial services group, to promote financial inclusion and improve remittance accessibility for workers in the UAE. This collaboration allows employees to instantly access their earned wages and send money to their families through LuLu Exchange, removing the need to wait until payday.
With the introduction of services such as Earned Wage Access (EWA) and Send Now, Pay Later (SNPL), workers gain more control over their finances. These tools are designed to provide greater flexibility, enabling individuals to manage their income according to their needs rather than rigid pay cycles.
The partnership reflects a shared commitment to supporting the financial well-being of expatriate workers. By offering timely access to earnings and facilitating fast remittances, this initiative addresses a common challenge faced by many—ensuring that loved ones back home receive support without unnecessary delays. It’s a step toward building a more inclusive financial system that empowers workers and enhances their ability to manage responsibilities both in the UAE and abroad.
