About
Retorna is a fintech company that specializes in international money transfers and remittances across Latin America and Europe.

The mobile application enables users to send money quickly and securely from countries like Chile, Colombia, Peru, Brazil, and across Europe (27 countries) to recipients in Venezuela, Colombia, Peru, Argentina, and the United States. The company processes over $80 million USD in monthly transactions, making it a significant player in the Latin American remittance market. Retorna positions itself as more than just a transfer service - it aims to contribute to a financially inclusive society where everyone has the power to shape their lives.
