Online portal used to send US deliveries to Cuba stops taking orders
Summary
According to AP via Biztoc.com, a major online platform used by Cuban Americans to send remittances and goods to relatives in Cuba has stopped accepting new orders. The shutdown appears tied to U.S. policy changes under the Trump administration, which have affected private channels for sending money and supplies to the island.
Why this matters
Services like this are an important informal lifeline for many Cuban households, especially when shortages make imported food and consumer goods hard to find. Changes in U.S. policy can quickly reshape how Cuban Americans support relatives on the island and can affect everyday living conditions in Cuba.
