So how big do you think the local market is for freelancers in Bangladesh?The freelancers and outsourcing professionals of Bangladesh is a huge chunk of the young work force of Bangladesh. The current figures are somewhere around five hundred thousand right now. But this number is growing every day. We noticed that most of our freelancers and outsourcing professionals are associated with affiliate marketing, web development, graphics design and blogging. We are seeing nowadays people from Bangladesh are working in IT overseas. This is certainly great news.
So what services are Transpay bringing for these people?As you know, we provide cross border digital money transfer facilities. We are bringing that very service in the Bangladeshi market. Using our services, the people from freelancing and outsourcing community can get their hard earned cash directly to the bank without any hassle.
How is Transpay different from all the other cross border digital money transfer services?As of now, we have contracts with all the major market places around the world. That is certainly one of our key advantages. In addition to that, we don't have any extra or hidden fees. We know every dime earned by the freelancers is precious hence we designed our charging structure accordingly. We know accessing internet can be difficult particularly in Bangladesh all the time, so we send SMS each and every time right after every transaction. These sorts of services are unheard from cross border digital money movers until now.
What's the future plan for Transpay in Bangladesh?We just got started in Bangladesh. We are planning to go big. The potential for a market like Bangladesh is immense. We have excellent customer service and any dispute can be solved our customer services really fast. In addition to that we are going to launch customized services for this market in the near future. We have already tied up with many banks. Not going to reveal everything now, you will get to see them soon enough.
Is this your first time in Bangladesh?(Chuckles). No. This is my fifth time in Bangladesh. The IT market of Bangladesh is immense. And the percentage of younger population is quite high in Bangladesh. These people are technology adopters hence has a higher rate of getting involved in outsourcing. So we do see an immense potential in this market.
