A payment remittance refers to the transfer of money from one party to another. It can encompass various types of transactions, including the payment of invoices, bills, or gifts. In the context of international money transfers, the term is often used to describe the funds sent by individuals working abroad to their families in their home countries. Remittances play a significant role in the global financial ecosystem, particularly in low-income and developing nations, where they represent one of the largest sources of income. The practice of sending remittance advice, which informs the recipient of a completed invoice payment, is also common in business transactions. Remittance transfers are subject to federal regulations, and remittance transfer providers are required to provide specific information to consumers before and after the transfer. The difference between a bank remittance and a bank transfer lies in the nature of the transaction: a bank remittance involves the transfer of funds as a payment or gift, while a bank transfer is a simple transfer of money from one account to another
