About the Company

GiveDirectly

Direct cash transfers to the poor

GiveDirectly provides direct cash transfers to people living in extreme poverty, funded by governments, foundations, and individual donors. It uses technology to locate recipients, connect them to electronic payments networks, and monitor transfers end-to-end, charging only the full cost of delivering the service. How it works: a recipient in need is identified, enrolled in an electronic payment system, and receives cash transfers with ongoing monitoring to ensure delivery, transparency, and accuracy. How it differs from competitors: it focuses on direct cash transfers with transparent pricing (no hidden fees) and end-to-end digital processes to scale efficiently, improve legitimacy, and reduce administrative overhead. Its goal: to create the world's most efficient, transparent, and scalable system to put resources directly into the hands of the poor and transform how international development is done.
