remit.ae's Impressions During Our Test

Careem Pay's ease of use makes it quite easy to open an account and send money, though its rather dated website design sometimes gets in the way, especially when it comes to changing the destination country. Despite the dated design, however, Careem Pay is pretty good at putting what its users need front and center.

Careem Pay Complaints

  • A few customers had a bad experience with Careem Pay, especially when cancelling their transaction and waiting for a refund.
  • On some occasions, the money took a bit longer to arrive than expected, normally because of banking hours in the receiving country.
  • Some customers complained that there were many requirements (bank information and personal identification) before making a transfer (note: these are legal obligations and therefore not Careem Pay's fault).

Notably, Careem Pay responded to user feedback online with an offer to look into and resolve the issues for the reviewer.
