Every year on 1 May, the people of Turkey come together to celebrate Labour Day – a day rooted in the global tradition of recognising the rights and contributions of workers. Known locally as Emek ve Dayanışma Günü (Labour and Solidarity Day), it’s a public holiday that honours those who keep the country moving – from factory workers to healthcare staff, service providers to educators. 
 

Many Turkish expats choose to send money home ahead of Labour Day – a gesture that reflects their deep sense of national pride and solidarity. Whether it's to help family prepare for the holiday or simply to stay connected, these transfers are a powerful reminder of the strength and unity shared across borders.
 

At Paysend, we know how important it is to stay connected — especially when you're far from home. This Mother’s Day, we’re making it easier to show your appreciation, no matter where your loved ones are - and it’s the perfect idea for a Mother’s Day gift…
