SBI Remit Partners With Tottori Bank to Launch International Remittance Service

According to SBI Remit, the April 20 launch marks its 26th tie-up with a financial institution and links payroll accounts for foreign technical interns to overseas money transfers.

Fact Check
The official press-release result '鳥取銀行 SBIレミットの国際送金サービス連携開始について' is strong primary evidence that SBI Remit partnered with Tottori Bank and that the service launch date was April 20 following a 2026-04-17 announcement. The secondary report 'SBIレミット、鳥取銀行と国際送金で連携 リップル社の分散型台帳技術を活用' matches the official item and specifically supports the claim that this was SBI Remit's 26th tie-up with a financial institution and that the service links salary-transfer accounts with overseas remittances. The third-party X posts at https://x.com/CoinDesk/status/2046161299462119589 and https://x.com/thecryptobasic/status/2046145046110449782 are consistent but not primary. The only notable issue is chronology: the supplied task event_time says 2025-04-20, while all sourced evidence points to 2026-04-20. So the claim itself is likely true, but the task metadata year appears off by one year.
