Project Bridge 2026

When It Matters Most,
It’s Verified.

Three activation hooks. One promise: verified delivery families can see. Start with your first transfer.

Shareable receipt + family confirmation in minutes.

Formal Inflow (FY25) $33.00B

Who We Activate

People Who Send Under Pressure.

Migrant workers operate under real liquidity pressure. Medical bills cannot wait. Harvest loans cannot wait. Family needs cannot wait. Our mandate is to reduce uncertainty at the moment it matters most — with verified settlement, visible confirmation, and systems designed for speed.

Strategic Mandate

  • Verified Settlement Under 10 Minutes
  • Visible Confirmation to Family
  • Retention Through Stability, Not Incentives

This is not a rate competition strategy. It is a stability strategy designed to formalize remittance without coercion and retain users through certainty.

Target Audience

The Migrant Mindset.

We don’t treat all migrants the same. We target three real mindsets — with hooks that match how people actually send.

Campaign Architecture

Verified in Minutes.

We don’t “sell remittance.” We remove uncertainty. People stay when the send is fast, provable, and respectful.

Grocery Guarantee

For Guardians: help lands as essentials, not pressure.

Deshi Friday

For Optimizers: predictable repeat behavior — built weekly.

Legacy Tracker

For Builders: show the journey, not just the transfer.

Conversion Funnel

1
Awareness

WhatsApp + community leaders + “proof” demos

2
Activation

First transfer set up before flight (Zero-Day)

3
Repeat

Day-7 plan + payday reminders + outcome presets

4
Referral

Share receipt → family sees proof → friend copies behavior

Primary KPI
First Transfer Rate
Secondary
90-Day Retention
Core Promise

Speed with dignity.

When a family is waiting at night, “fast” isn’t a feature — it’s relief. We deliver speed without fear, and proof without paperwork.

Proof Language

No agent. No guessing.

A shareable receipt that looks official and feels final. It turns a transfer into a visible, verifiable moment.

Compliance Tone

Safety, not scrutiny.

We frame formal remittance as protection: safer identity, safer delivery, safer family outcomes — without shame or pressure.

Phase 0 • Origin Activation

Zero-Day: Build the first-transfer habit.

We don’t chase workers after they land. We set the habit before they board — at the moment they’re most open to guidance.

Why It Works

Zero-Day wins quietly.

Less noise

Agents can’t dominate the TTC moment. The environment is calmer — and workers listen.

Fraud immunization

We teach PIN and OTP rules before the airport scam wave hits.

Day-7 repeat

The first successful send early on becomes the habit. That’s the entire game.

Activation Note

This is “speed with dignity” at origin: help that feels like protection — not paperwork.

Shared Foundation

Speed with dignity.

We do not fight hundi with fear. We win by making formal remittance feel faster, safer, and more humane — with proof families can hold.

The promise.

Fast, provable, respectful. The system exists to protect that feeling — not to “sell” a bank.

Speed with dignity
Scope note

The detailed “Speed Engine / 10-Minute Promise” system design (real-time status, proof artifacts, rail redundancy, latency triggers) is intentionally summarized at a principle level here, per scope. The campaign is built so the promise is understood by humans, while the technical validation sits in internal docs.

Global Intelligence

Where the volume is. Where the growth is.

The Gulf is the volume engine. The West is the high-value corridor. SE Asia is the pilot for scale and digital rails.

Priority corridors (FY25)

Macro shift: formal channels rising as the hundi gap narrows

GCC West SE Asia
$4.26B
KSA
$4.73B
USA
$3.16B
UK
$2.80B
MY
$0.98B
SG

Campaign implication: treat GCC as retention + habit, treat West as high-value outcomes, treat SE Asia as “rails + payday capture.”

2026 Surge Windows

People don’t send evenly.

Ramadan, Eid, Pohela Boishakh and Qurbani weeks shift behavior. We plan creative and staffing around these dates.

UAE constraint

Acquire less. Serve deeper.

With tighter visa conditions for new entrants, UAE becomes retention-first: payroll habits, proof sharing, and family outcome sends.

Pilot rationale

SE Asia is the test lab.

Malaysia offers scalable semi-skilled density. Singapore offers bank-account salary rails — perfect for payday reminders and automation.

Institutional Power

The value exchange.

We keep people in the formal system by solving everyday problems — not by shouting rates.

Why this matters

Hundi wins on “doorstep service.” Our response is not to imitate illegality — it’s to deliver dignity: outcomes, proof, and practical help.

BRAC products that fit the mindsets

Offer packaging

Outcome bundles

Let people choose “what the money is for” at send time: groceries, bills, school, medicine. This is how we compete with doorstep trust.

Activation Plan

Market-by-market activation calendar.

One platform. Different human realities. We time activations around payday, community rhythms, and the Bangladesh surge calendar.

Bangladesh surge calendar

Plan around the moments people send.

Creative + staffing + partner offers
Moment Approx. date What people feel Activation
Ramadan starts Feb 18, 2026 Steady household pressure Chaa Adda (Iftar focus) + proof demos
Laylat al-Qadr Mar 17, 2026 Zakat + higher-value sends “Send with proof” + outcome bundles (food/medicine)
Eid-ul-Fitr Mar 20–23, 2026 Peak urgency + emotion Eid Celebration burst + community booths
Pohela Boishakh Apr 14, 2026 Gifting + family pride Pohela packs + photo booth + proof share
Eid-ul-Adha May 26–31, 2026 High-ticket Qurbani sends Qurbani outcome send + verified delivery messaging
Tone rule

We never threaten people with compliance. We reassure them: “Send fast. Send safely. Keep your family out of risk.”

High-level campaign plan

A year built around three habits.

Habit 1
First transfer

Zero-Day module + flight pack + proof share. Build the reflex before agents can.

Habit 2
Payday routine

Remind at payday. Make it one tap. Send with proof. Use outcomes (bills, groceries, school).

Habit 3
Share proof

Turn every transaction into a social signal: verified receipt + family “confirmed” reply.

Human Engagement Framework

Make safety feel human.

Dignity (photo), relationship (voice), and habit (simple learning). This is “Speed with dignity” in real life.

Governance & Compliance

Compliance with empathy.

The “war on hundi” cannot become a war on workers. We hold the line on AML/CFT, while designing experiences that reduce fear and friction.

Principle 1

No public “selling”

We do not behave like agents. No rate boards. No pressure. Tools appear after user request.

Principle 2

Plain-language consent

Clear explanation of KYC, data use, and opt-ins — in Bangla — without intimidation.

Principle 3

Protect the vulnerable

We design for low literacy, high anxiety, and scam risk — because that is the real compliance battlefield.

Incident reports, fraud dashboards.
Compliance statement (plain language)

Project Bridge supports safe, legal remittance. We do not handle cash. We do not act as intermediaries. We provide education, digital onboarding support, and proof tools that help families verify transfers. All materials and scripts are pre-approved.

Board Monitoring

How we run this without chaos.

A clear operating rhythm: weekly QA, monthly corridor reviews, and surge-mode staffing around key dates.

What success looks like

We measure success as habit change: more first transfers, more repeat sending, and less reliance on agents — because families can see proof.
