About TANGapp

‍TANGGapp is an international peer-to-peer mobile payment app and aims to be the international ‘Venmo’ across the seas for the 1.5 billion unbanked globally and migrant workers, starting with the Philippines. After more than 55x growth since launching remittances, the company is entering an exciting growth phase and is ready to add fuel to this rocket.

Rebecca Kersch, the CEO and founder of TANGGapp, started the company in 2020 because of her personal connection to the challenges that migrant workers and their unbanked Filipino relatives face. Since founding TANGGapp, Rebecca has received multiple awards and accolades, including being selected for the Forbes Asia’s 100 To Watch List 2023. In addition to being Harvard-founded and backed with Harvard grants, TANGGapp’s investors include leading VCs in both the US and the PH. The startup is well-funded to accelerate its exciting growth.

We’re a global and remote-first team of self-starters and independent thinkers that wants to change the way global payments work by first making it easy, fast, and convenient to send money to the Philippines. We have an open-minded and inclusive culture with a diverse international team who come from all sorts of backgrounds and stages of life. We champion diversity and inclusion. We are a meritocracy, where the best ideas win no matter where they come from. Our team is partly based in the US as well as in the Philippines and India.
