about tweepsmap
 
“TweepsMap originally started as a fun project. Back in the day I saw someone trying to map twitter and social media analysis. I built something quickly and put it out there. This was back in 2011. It got a lot of traction. A lot of brands were reaching out and I saw that there was a business need. I talked to a friend of mine, Reuven, and got him to join me in building the company."

TweepsMap’s platform lets you get beneath the surface of your audience, allowing you to build the ideal online community, and schedule tweets at the best times to suit your followers.

The service allows you to map Twitter followers to a city level, and interact knowing demographics: languages, gender and professions. You can also segment your Twitter followers through a range of filters and keywords; export the data to excel, or categorize them in a list.

50+ Hours Saved

Samir used to visit the bank weekly, with each visit lasting at least 1 hour. With Remitr, TweepsMap makes payments in a few clicks!

2-3% More Revenue

No more unnecessary forced currency conversions. Since TweepsMap began using Remitr, they've been saving 2-3% of revenue on currency conversions.

Why Did Tweepsmap Turn to Remitr?

Unhappy with other payment providers and the high fees he was being charged, Samir began his search for a better alternative.

“Before using Remitr, we used another service. That service had significant change to their fee structure and I was not happy, so I was looking for an alternative."

“Remitr showed up in my Google Search. After that I went to check out ‘who is Remitr’ and the people behind it before I used the service. Obviously, it’s a financial service and you don’t want to just open an account with some random service.

Saving more than four hours a month of your time is a big benefit. There is a lot of value in that. Not having to waste money by paying for unnecessary conversion costs...that alone will add 2% to your revenue. That's huge for us.

Remitr's Impact

Easy Int'L Payments

Not all of TweepsMap's vendors are in Canada. From the beginning, TweepsMap found that Remitr was cheaper than Plooto and PayPal for international payments. They also no longer had to deal with the hassle and expense of bank wire transfers.

No Forced Conversions

PayPal doesn't allow Canadian businesses to transfer USD - they're forced to convert to CAD. TweepsMap used to have to transfer from USD to CAD, and then back to USD to pay vendors. This forced double conversion saw them pay high fx fees each time.

Global Business Account

Thanks to the Remitr Global Business Account, TweepsMap can hold USD funds in their account and use or convert them to CAD at any time. The company now saves half a percent on USD conversions, and they do it only when they need to.

Remitr is the best alternative to checks and wire transfers for your business. Our Global Network allows for 1-2 day business payments wherever you do business. We also offer a free Global Business Account for receiving online sales payouts in $, £ and € – without the bank fees or the delays.
