With Pana, money no longer needs to be &ldquo;sent&rdquo; as a remittance&mdash;it simply becomes available through a modern global account: <strong>account-to-account, Pana to Pana<\/strong>, ready to use across LatAm in seconds.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><strong>Pana isn&rsquo;t improving the old remittance model.<\/strong> <strong>It&rsquo;s replacing it.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><strong>From &ldquo;sending money&rdquo; to simply &ldquo;having money available&rdquo;<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">For decades, cross-border transfers meant lines, fees, delays, and cash pickups. Pana turns that into instant access: a user deposits cash at Walgreens or receives their paycheck into Pana; seconds later, their family in Latin America can spend that balance locally with their <strong>Pana Global Card<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">No transfer event. No pickup. No friction. Just instant access.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">&ldquo;Western Union was the SMS of money. Pana is the WhatsApp&mdash;instant, digital, and built for the 21st century,&rdquo; said <strong>Piero del Risco<\/strong>, Pana&rsquo;s cofounder and CEO. &ldquo;Once both sides hold a global account, the idea of &lsquo;sending money&rsquo; disappears.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><strong>How it works: complexity removed<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">Behind the scenes, Pana integrates U.S. banking, stablecoins, blockchain, and AI into a <strong>unified ledger<\/strong> that automates routing and abstracts all technical layers. Users see <strong>one balance and one action<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">The flow is automatic: <strong>cash\/payroll &rarr; USD &rarr; stablecoin &rarr; local fiat<\/strong>. The user doesn&rsquo;t have to understand any of it.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><strong>A global account for creators, freelancers, and modern professionals<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">Latin American creators and independent workers can now:<\/p>\n<ul style=\"text-align: justify\">\n<li>receive payments from U.S. platforms and clients;<\/li>\n<li>transfer into their local bank when needed;<\/li>\n<li>or <strong>spend globally with the Pana Global Card<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">What once required multiple intermediaries now happens in a single environment.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><strong>Continental infrastructure: instant interoperability at scale<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">Pana now operates as a borderless system with:<\/p>\n<ul style=\"text-align: justify\">\n<li><strong>300,000 cash-in points across the U.S. and LatAm<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>5,000+ integrated banks in Latin America<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>35 connected countries<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>global cards activated in minutes<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">This converts the <strong>$150B annual remittance market<\/strong>&mdash;still largely cash-based&mdash;into a faster, safer, more digital, more inclusive financial layer.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><strong>A clear stance toward the status quo<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">&ldquo;Legacy models were built on agents, cash, and physical rails,&rdquo; N&uacute;&ntilde;ez del Risco added. &ldquo;Pana is software, speed, and interoperability&mdash;<strong>a global card that makes remittances unnecessary<\/strong>.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><strong>About Pana<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">Pana, backed by YCombinator builds the financial infrastructure that connects the United States and Latin America. By integrating U.S. banking, stablecoins, AI, and local rails, Pana enables people, families, creators, and businesses to move and spend money across borders with a unified user experience.
