Why do you only accept tutors from these countries?
Sending money across borders as a business is complex in the legal sense. While individuals can access a myriad of services to easily send money to friends and families, businesses have a whole host of regulation to comply with. Each country has a different set of regulations, and the laws work differently for platforms like Spires.
At the time of writing, we only use Stripe to pay tutors via a split at source payment mechanism. We operate this as a platform, and can only send payments to the above countries.
