The neutral decision layer for global FX and cross-border payments

We don't move the money. We help you choose the best way to do it.

Executive summary

What we are. Mangomundi is a non-custodial comparison and decision layer for sending money across borders. Individuals use a free comparator; companies use a request-for-quote flow. The product is live in 20 languages, with price data across 320+ country corridors.

The problem. Sending US$200 abroad costs 6.36% on average (World Bank, 2025), about double the UN target of 3%, on roughly US$905B of remittances a year. Each provider shows only its own price; nobody shows every price with its source and date.

The plan. Revenue starts with referral fees, then adds corporate RFQ, advertising and treasury software. Base case: first revenue in Year 1 (US$7.6K), US$1.02M in Year 5 and break-even in Year 4. We are opening a pre-seed round (size to be defined) to prove click-out and conversion, scale organic distribution globally and start corporate pilots.

The opportunity

People and companies overpay to move money across borders. We help them pick a cheaper way and keep a small slice of what they save. Even a minimal slice is a large business.

Why the problem persists

  • The price is hard to see. The same transfer costs different amounts depending on provider, country pair, amount and how it is paid and received. No single source shows all of it.
  • Providers show only their own price. Banks and transfer apps sell their own transfers. Many comparison sites focus on consumers and show indicative rates.
  • Companies are underserved. Corporate treasuries often quote through a single relationship; there is no neutral, dated and sourced view of all-in cost (rate + spread + fee) and speed.
Sources: World Bank (remittances 2024; Remittance Prices Worldwide 2025); FXC Intelligence (2025). The ~$58B figure applies the average cost of a $200 transfer to total flows: percentage costs fall as amounts rise, so read it as an order of magnitude.

Solution

One neutral view: collect, verify, rank, then refer or quote

Mangomundi never holds funds. It is a non-custodial comparison layer, not a transfer provider.

How it works

1. Collect

Prices from a live feed, World Bank data and direct research on provider sites.

2. Verify

Each price keeps its source, date and a verification status, so stale or weak data is visible.

3. Rank

A multi-criteria engine ranks by cheapest, fastest or most received, and an AI assistant explains why.

4. Refer or quote

Individuals click out to the provider; companies send a request for quote.

Why now

Costs have not converged, while price data, AI and Latin American flows make a neutral layer feasible

Four changes, three of them measurable. The fourth is our thesis and is labelled as such.

Our thesis (a belief, not a measured fact)

  • Sourced data is a distribution advantage. Search engines and AI answer engines reward pages that state where a number comes from and when it was checked. A comparator that stores source, date and verification status on every price is built for that.
  • The white space is real. Monito, the closest comparable, has, per Similarweb estimates (not independently verified), the UK, Germany, France, the US and Italy as its top five audiences; Latin America is not among them.
Sources: World Bank (RPW 2025); Inter-American Development Bank (remittances to LAC, 2024 and 2025 estimate); Similarweb (Monito, 3 months to Sep 2026); Mangomundi database. Growth of 7.2% = $174.4B / $162.7B − 1.

Market

A ~US$250B yearly fee and revenue pool, with ~US$10B in Latin American remittances

Sized as the fees and revenue users and companies pay, not as payment volume. Volume is context; fees are the pool a comparator competes for.
TAM

Cross-border fees, global

~US$250B / year

Remittance fees of ~US$58B (US$905B of flows × 6.36%) plus the SME cross-border B2B revenue pool of US$191B (FXC Intelligence; B2B flows: US$34.8T in 2025, US$51.2T projected for 2033). The remittance figure is indicative: percentage costs fall as amounts rise.

SAM

Latin America and the Caribbean

~US$10B / year

Remittance fees: US$162.7B of flows (2024, about 18% of global; IDB projects US$174.4B for 2025, +7.2%) × the same 6.36%. First focus region. Assumes the global average cost applies to the region.

SOM

Reachable in 5 years

~US$1.02M / year

Base case, Year 5: about 31,700 referred retail customers and 90 corporate clients. Upside case: US$16.12M. We earn a referral fee or a take rate, not the full fee, so SOM is a small fraction of the pool.

Why this market fits a neutral comparator

  • The cost gap is large and visible. The average cost (6.36%) is more than 3 points above the UN target of 3%; each percentage point is worth about US$9B a year.
  • The long tail is unserved. The World Bank price database tracks 367 corridors (48 sending, 105 receiving countries); real flows run through thousands of country pairs.
  • Latin America is a core region. It receives about 18% of global remittances, and the founder was born in Argentina.
  • B2B is large and opaque. US$34.8T of cross-border business payments in 2025, projected US$51.2T by 2033; the SME segment alone generates about US$191B of provider revenue.
Sources: World Bank (remittances 2024; Remittance Prices Worldwide 2025); Inter-American Development Bank (LAC 2024, 2025 projection); FXC Intelligence (B2B). TAM = 58 + 191 ≈ 250 (rounded); SAM = 162.7 × 6.36% = 10.3. SOM from the Base case, Year 5, in Financials.

Unit economics, retail (Base case)

  • 1,000 visits × 6% click out × 8% convert × US$15 = US$72
  • 1,000 visits × 2.06 pages × US$8 per 1,000 pageviews = about US$16 (once ads are approved)
  • Total: about US$88 per 1,000 visits
  • The Conservative case keeps today's untested 3% × 5% × US$10 = US$15
Pages per visit (2.06) is Monito's figure. Cost per visit is not yet tracked, so gross margin is not reported.
  • Not yet measured: click-out rate, conversion and each partner's payout terms. 3,944 outbound clicks are logged since July, but tracking is not yet validated, so they are not counted as traction. Revenue to date is not measured. Measuring this is the first task.
  • Neutrality: referral relationships and the ranking methodology are disclosed to users.

CAC

  • Today: acquisition is organic, so paid CAC is not applicable and is not reported.
  • Rule: turn on paid acquisition only when click-out, conversion and payout per customer show that a visitor is worth more than it costs.

Global from day one

125+ countries and 20 languages are already live. Latin America is the first focus region because it is large, growing and absent from Monito's top audiences. Other regions follow where corridor pages already earn impressions.

  • Open geography: 20 languages and Latin America, where Monito's top audiences are not.
  • Industry insight: a founder with 15+ years in FX who has seen how providers price and sell.
  • Honest gap: audience, brand and search authority. Monito reaches about 141K visits a month (Similarweb estimate), roughly 2,000 times our qualified traffic today, after more than a decade.
  • Proof of model: an affiliate-only comparator built a multi-year business and raised a US$2.5M Series A (2018) with a team of about 7.

Team

A founder with first-hand FX industry experience, using AI-assisted development to move fast

One founder today. The first hires are chosen to cover growth, engineering and partnerships.

Founder

Alejandro Javier Casasco

Industrial engineer and MBA, born in Argentina and based in London. More than 15 years in foreign exchange, cross-border payments, financial institutions, trade finance and enterprise sales.

At Moneycorp he reached Vice President and worked on commercial relationships with financial institutions, gaining first-hand experience of how providers price, sell and compete.

Built the product end to end: 20 languages, 75 provider profiles and 320+ corridors, with AI-assisted development and a small team.

Education: Industrial Engineering and MBA; UADE, Duke University, Universidad de Buenos Aires, Universidad Torcuato Di Tella.

First hires (proposed, staggered)

  • Growth / SEO lead: corridor pages, backlinks, content rhythm
  • Full-stack and data engineer: price verification, automatic refresh, integrations
  • Partnerships: affiliate programs, price feeds, corporate pilots
  • Base-case headcount, founder included: 2, 3, 4, 6 and 8 FTE in years 1 to 5, each hire gated by revenue (Appendix G)
  • Key-person risk: the company depends on one founder today. Hiring the three roles above, and documenting the data and ranking methodology, is part of what the round funds.

Investor norm: first revenue in Years 1 to 3, break-even in Years 3 to 5. Base meets both: first revenue in Year 1, break-even in Year 4. Upside breaks even in Year 3. Conservative is the downside: it does not within five years, so hiring would be frozen. Losses in Years 1 to 3 are normal at this stage: they fund distribution (ads, social, content) and data, and the round covers the peak cash need.

What you would need to believe

  • Traffic grows from about 70 qualified visits a month today to 3K a month on average in Year 1, 150K in Year 3 and 550K in Year 5. That is about 23 visits a month for each of ~6,480 pages in Year 3 (324 corridors × 20 languages), and about 85 in Year 5.
  • 6% of visitors click out, 8% of them become customers, each paying US$15. None of this is measured yet.
  • Break-even in Year 4 depends on the funnel and on traffic: halving either pushes it beyond Year 5, and a US$10 payout moves it to Year 5.
  • Headcount grows from 2 to 8 FTE at US$65K loaded cost (blended, mostly remote team); costs and hires are proposals to be confirmed.

The round

A pre-seed round to prove unit economics and scale organic distribution globally

Round size and terms are being defined and will be shared in conversation. Below: what the money must prove and how we propose to use it.

What the round must prove (next 12 months, proposed)

  • Data trust: every covered corridor with at least 2 strongly verified sources (today 160 of 324 fall short) and automatic price refresh.
  • Unit economics: validated click-out and conversion tracking, and payout terms recorded for each partner.
  • Distribution: the corridors stuck in 'discovered, not indexed' crawled; backlink gap vs Monito and CompareRemit narrowing; base-case traffic of about 3K visits a month.
  • Corporate revenue: qualified RFQ pilots with real companies and documented conversion to paid revenue.
  • Monetization: remaining affiliate programs live; AdSense re-application once its four fixes are done (optional: Monito runs without ads).

Cost lines

  • People: FTE (founder included) × US$65K loaded cost (salary, taxes, equipment; blended, mostly remote team).
  • Marketing: paid ads and social media from Year 1 in every case, plus content distribution and link building.
  • Other: data feeds and infrastructure, tools, legal and compliance across markets, accounting.

Revenue is multiplicative in three unmeasured rates, so small errors compound. Halving the funnel or the traffic moves Base break-even beyond Year 5, and a US$10 payout moves it from Year 4 to Year 5. Measuring the funnel is the first milestone.

Monito in depth: the closest comparable

A money-transfer comparison site operating for more than a decade.

Profile and funding

  • Who: Swiss comparison site for money-transfer providers, based in Lausanne.
  • Funding: raised US$2.5M in a Series A on 19 Dec 2018, led by Tamedia (Swiss media group), with B&Y Venture Partners, fintech entrepreneur Alexandre Gonthier and existing investors. At that time it had about 7 staff and compared 400+ providers across 190+ countries.
  • Use of funds: grow its international audience and hire engineers, designers and digital marketers.
  • Business model: affiliate links to providers; it states it does not use banner ads or paywalls.
  • Today: self-reports 15M+ people served; Similarweb (third-party estimate, not verified) puts it at about 141K visits a month (421.7K in the three months to Sep 2026; 54% from organic search; top audiences: UK 23%, Germany 10%, France 5%, US 5%, Italy 4%). Expanded into neobanks, eSIMs, travel insurance, VPNs and top-ups, and has a mobile app.

What Monito tells us

  • The market works: an affiliate-only comparator built a multi-year business and raised a Series A with a 7-person team.
  • Our gap: audience, brand and search authority. Monito took more than a decade to reach its current scale; our scenarios assume a much faster path and that is the main risk.

Appendix F · Risks

Key risks and how we address them

Stated openly, ordered by how much they could change the outcome.
RiskWhy it mattersMitigation
DistributionAbout 70 qualified visits a month today; the Base case assumes growth of more than three orders of magnitude by Year 5Corridor and hub pages, widget as a backlink channel, social and corporate outreach; track indexed pages and impressions monthly
Unproven unit economicsClick-out, conversion and payouts are not yet measured; revenue multiplies all threeValidate tracking, record payout terms per partner: first milestone of the round
Data accuracy and trust160 of 324 corridors have fewer than 2 strong sources and 676 of 1,289 prices are not yet confirmed; a stale price damages credibilityVerification status shown on every price; automatic refresh; show freshness
Partner and feed concentration6 live affiliates; the live feed comes from one provider API (10 providers)Add affiliate programs and feeds; keep direct research as a second source
Regulation and disclosureComparators operate under financial-promotion and affiliate-disclosure rules that vary by marketDisclose referral relationships and ranking methodology; fund a multi-market legal review (10% of the round)
Single founderKey-person dependencyHire growth/SEO, engineering and partnerships; document methodology
Search dependenceMost future traffic is organic; algorithm and AI-answer changes can move itDiversify: widget, partners, social, corporate; build brand through sourced, dated data
Traffic measurement933 of 996 GA4 sessions are Direct with 4% engagement, so raw traffic overstates reach; qualified traffic is about 63 sessions in 28 daysReport qualified traffic only; filter internal and automated traffic in GA4; validate click tracking
Plan and cost assumptionsFunnel rates, payouts, headcount and costs are proposals; Base break-even in Year 5 is thinGate hiring and paid marketing on measured revenue; update the model monthly with real data
AdvertisingFirst AdSense application not approvedAds are optional and start in Year 2 in the Base case; Monito runs without ads
