After evaluating lots of candidates, burning the midnight oil, I’m proud to publish, what I think is the world’s first Periodic Table of Remittances (Money Transfer). The table provides a glance into the Remittances world and the players who are prominent.
The table can be shared as long as the original table is untouched and due credit is given.

Thanks for putting this together. Found it useful.
Good report, last time I saw some research on this segment of the financial markets was from a exchange company in UK. This is very comprehensive work.
Hi,
Interesting information. You have left us out as an emerging player: mHITs Remit. See http://www.mhits.com.au/send-money/
What is shown above is only the beginning of our remittance journey. See our corporate website for more details on our other activities including Bitcoin. http://www.mhitslimited.com.

Extremely valuable overview of the overall remittance market ecosystem. We would be pleased to see our company in this table, being the first and only international money transfer local brand of Turkey, http://www.upt.com.tr
Noted your name down for the next update.
Check us out! We provide a remittance service for the Philippines. Overseas and local Filipinos can support their families with digital gift certificates for their life essential needs – food, supplies, medicines, health care and bills. Our goal is to enable providers a means to remit with a purpose in a way that is convenient, affordable, transparent and sustainable. Hope you can add us to this list.
BeamRemit.com URL link is incorrect.
Corrected. Thank you.
Also add http://www.inr2day.com/ also in the comparison sites list
Faisal, thanks for putting this together. Extremely useful.
Would like to suggest an addition to the comparison sites listed on your post – RemitMan (www.remitman.com)
Think of it as the Kayak.com for remittances – Helps consumers to save money through increased transparency and access to wider selection of remittance providers across major corridors. RemitMan provides real-time exchange rates and fees information through intuitive design and simple interface.
We would be happy to have a call to provide more information and share our vision.
I would like to suggest one more money transfer site ; https://www.remit2india.com/sendmoneytoindia/homepage.jsp
