Mumbai: IDFC FIRST Bank has unveiled RemitFIRST2India, a cutting-edge digital remittance platform designed to empower Non-Resident Indians (NRIs) to send money to their loved ones in India swiftly, securely, and without any transfer fees.

Developed in collaboration with SingX, a licensed remittance provider regulated by the Monetary Authority of Singapore, RemitFIRST2India delivers a fully compliant, seamless cross-border payment experience. The platform currently supports remittances from Singapore and Hong Kong, with plans to expand to other global markets. Live transaction tracking ensures customers are informed at every stage of the transfer process.

Key Highlights of RemitFIRST2India:

  • Zero Transfer Fees – Enjoy fee-free transactions with no hidden platform or processing charges.

Ashish Singh, Head – Retail Liabilities, IDFC FIRST Bank, said:
“RemitFIRST2India is more than just a remittance service — it embodies our customer-first approach. With a user-friendly interface and a transparent process, it enables NRIs to send money home effortlessly, securely, and at no cost. Whether you’re an existing customer or new to the Bank, you can make a transfer in just a few clicks with complete peace of mind. This launch further strengthens IDFC FIRST Bank’s position as a digitally progressive bank committed to serving the global Indian diaspora.”

Atul Garg, CEO of SingX, added:
“As global focus intensifies on India, inward NRI remittances are expected to double over the next five years. While supporting family needs remains a priority, we are increasingly witnessing NRIs sending funds to India to invest in debt and equity markets. Our partnership with IDFC FIRST Bank enables us to offer a cost-effective, streamlined remittance experience for this evolving NRI segment.”
