Every month, a remote worker in the Dominican Republic gets paid $2,900 USD from the U.S.
For years, the routine was the same:
international wires or remittance services, 3–6% gone in fees and FX, and days of waiting for the money to show up.
Now he uses Decaf.
His salary lands in his U.S. account, held in self-custody, and he withdraws straight to his local bank in 🇩🇴.
Around 1% in fees. Less than a day.
That’s it. He does this every month.
Anyone moving a monthly salary from the U.S. to DR?
What’s been the hardest part?
