Block chain has become a popular distributed ledger technology, which assists to store data in a secured, tamper proofed and immutable manner. In recent years, banks and remittance institutes have shown their interests increasingly to investigate the application design issues related to this disruptive technology, for instance, by evaluating the competitive advantage of using the applications over the tradition banking and remittance industry. Gaining opportunities of the block chain, however, is a challenge for international remittance due to the lack of relevant knowledge of business integration, security, regulatory requirements, technological improvements in mining hardware requirements and social trust.It is imperative to develop application design understanding that may be assistive to gain the actual benefit of the block chain in remittance management. Aiming to offer new knowledge for academics, researchers, business owners, government, FinTech companies and general public users elaborating interplaying business, technical and social requirements, this paper presents a design research approach that guides the development of a novel block chain-oriented remittance model for Australian remittance companies. This paper reports on a preliminary design which can be considered as a first proof-of-concept prototype. We identify key requirements of designing a secured, faster, user-friendly and responsive options for delivering secured transparency of financial transactions for stakeholders, which are to be complying with Know Your Customer (KYC) and Anti-Money Laundering (AML) regulations.
