Isn't coins.ph an already existing platform for this ?
Heard good things about it, and they are now expanding into new countries.
Yup, coins.ph not only do remittance but also exchange and provide online wallet.
I wonder how these 2 compare against each other in terms of fees etc.
Both claim to be free for the end users (apart from fees the third party provider is asking, but bank transfers seem free for example). My guess is both are making their money via the BTC exchange rate. I.e. they display a rate to you, but they are actually able to get a better price from their partners.
