Ogni mese, migliaia di persone che lavorano nella Repubblica Ceca inviano una parte del proprio stipendio a casa; molti di loro sono cittadini ucraini che sostengono le proprie famiglie dall'altra parte del confine. E i metodi tradizionali rendono più complicato ciò che dovrebbe essere semplice: bonifici bancari che richiedono IBAN e codici SWIFT, commissioni che diventano visibili solo dopo l'invio del denaro e giorni di attesa mentre a casa qualcuno fa affidamento su quel trasferimento.
Pavel Štich aiuta da anni i suoi lettori a risolvere proprio questo problema. È cofondatore e caporedattore finanziario di Moneyo.cz, una piattaforma finanziaria ceca indipendente che mette a confronto servizi di trasferimento di denaro, broker e investimenti alternativi, oltre a essere Ambasciatore Paysend. Questo significa che prova personalmente ciò che consiglia, lo spiega in modo semplice e offre ai suoi lettori vantaggi esclusivi. Gli abbiamo chiesto come è nato Moneyo, chi sono i suoi lettori e perché ha scelto Paysend.

Per venire incontro a queste esigenze, i nuovi clienti Paysend possono effettuare il primo trasferimento senza commissioni e usufruire di un tasso di cambio più vantaggioso durante il periodo del ritorno a scuola.
