Online Money Transfer & Government ID

Do you need a government ID to send your money?

Yes. When you do your first money transfer with any remittance service provider like Remitly or Xoom, they are going to ask you for a government ID to verify your identity. This is compulsory due to the federal and state regulations and hence it is important that you must verify your identity on your first transaction.
