Paysend Product Updates: New receiving countries: Albania and Bosnia & Herzegovina

At Paysend, we’re always working to make sending money abroad quicker, easier and more affordable. And now, you can send money straight from the UK or anywhere in the EEA to Visa or Mastercard cards in:
- Albania (in Albanian lek – ALL)
- Bosnia & Herzegovina (in BAM)
It’s simple, fast and only costs £1 or €1.50 to send – no need for bank account details or extra steps.
If you’re based in the EEA (that’s the EU plus Iceland, Liechtenstein and Norway), you can now take advantage of these new routes too – with the same safe, smooth experience you’d expect from Paysend.

Indian food is loved around the world for its bold spices, comforting curries and rich textures. But if you're dairy intolerant or lactose sensitive, some traditional dishes can feel off-limits — especially when ingredients like ghee, cream, yoghurt and paneer take centre stage. Thankfully, dairy-free Indian food is not only possible — it’s delicious. Many popular dishes like chana masala, aloo gobi, dal tadka, vegetable biryani and roti are naturally dairy-free or can easily be adapted. With a few smart swaps, you can enjoy all the flavour of Indian cuisine without the dairy.
If you move away from home, it’s often the little things that stay with you — the comforting smell of spices in a warm kitchen, or the first bite of a dish that reminds you of family and celebration. Food has a way of connecting us to where we come from, even when we’re far away.
For many people living abroad, staying connected means more than just a phone call — it’s the small rituals that bring comfort, like cooking a familiar meal or helping out back home when you can. Whether it’s a recipe passed down through generations or a quick money transfer to support family, those gestures keep us close.
