Choice Remit: Stabilizing the East African Corridor.
Choice Remit migrated from a failing legacy system to the RemitSo White Label platform to secure business continuity for thousands of Ethiopian, Kenyan, and Somali diaspora members in Canada.
Every user profile, ID document, and transaction record was ported to a stable, modern API-first ledger without service interruption.
Protecting Regulatory Standing
Legacy infrastructure was plagued by persistent outages, mobile app crashes, and ledger discrepancies. Choice Remit couldn't just "fix" the old code—they needed a foundational reboot.
Old System
High latency, manual reconciliation, unstable mobile apps.
RemitSo Era
Real-time automation, API-first ledger, native performance.
The Migration Lifecycle
A strict 5-phase framework to move Choice Remit from failure to stability.
Identity Mapping
Mapping legacy KYC data to modern compliance schemas.
ETL Processing
Extract, Transform, and Load of 5+ years of transaction history.
Ledger Sync
Aligning opening balances and historical currency rates.
Native Deployment
Pushing branded iOS & Android apps to production stores.
Live Cutover
DNS switch and real-time monitoring of first production batches.
Engineering a Unified Regional Ledger
To support specific corridors, we customized our core general ledger to handle the volatile liquidity requirements of East African currencies.
-
Multi-Currency Settlement Logic
Custom rounding and precision engines for CAD to ETB, KES, and SOS.
-
Regional API Integrations
Direct hooks into local bank networks and mobile money providers (M-Pesa, HelloCash).
Choice Remit now manages its entire operation through a custom portal with real-time visibility into customer onboarding and FX margins.
