SendFriend CEO Lauds Ripple, Says XRP Payment Solution Saves 80% in Fees

At a recent conference, David Lighton, co-founder and CEO of SendFriend, gave Ripple his stamp of approval during a presentation. Per a blog post published by fintech company Ripple, which works with SendFriend to help facilitate payments, the CEO said that his company can allow consumers to save 80% on remittance and other payment fees, partially due to Ripple’s services.

Through ODL, SendFriend is purportedly able to source liquidity and thus cut the cost of transactions by upwards of 75%. Also, the CEO of international payments specialist Mercury FX, Alastair Constance, talked up Ripple at a recent event: “To really grow we wanted to target anyone who needs cross-border payments… When we discovered that Ripple could help us settle payments 100 times faster and at a fraction of the cost, it was a game-changing moment.”.
