About
Aayush Jain is the Founder of ForexFee and a fintech growth and product professional with 8 years of experience building financial products for people who move money across borders. He previously worked at Aspora, a cross-border remittance platform, where he developed deep expertise in how money moves — and how much of it disappears in fees and exchange rate margins along the way.
As an ex-NRI himself, Aayush knows first-hand what it feels like to send money home and not understand why the recipient amount never quite matches what was advertised. That experience is the foundation of ForexFee: a genuinely independent comparison tool that surfaces the true all-in cost — fees plus exchange markup — across 20+ providers, and ranks them purely by what the recipient receives.
Aayush is currently building Rovia, a fintech product for NRIs and globally mobile professionals. ForexFee sits alongside that work as both a useful product and a research platform — a real-time window into how cross-border money costs are shifting across corridors, providers, and product categories.
All editorial content on ForexFee — provider reviews, travel card analyses, corridor guides, tools, and methodology — is written or directly overseen by Aayush. Every claim is verified against primary sources: provider websites, regulatory filings, and live rate data. The ranking algorithm was designed to be affiliate-blind by construction: it sorts purely on recipient value, not commission.

Role at ForexFee
Editorial approach
Primary sources only
Every fee figure, every rate claim, every regulatory statement is sourced from the provider's own published terms or from live rate data — never from secondary aggregators or press releases.
Affiliate-independent rankings
Affiliate relationships exist with some providers. They do not affect ranking. The ForexFee algorithm sorts purely by recipient value — the number a family actually receives after all fees and margin.
Quarterly review cycle
All content is reviewed on a quarterly schedule. Provider fee changes, card term updates, and regulatory changes trigger an immediate review outside the quarterly cycle.
