Online portal used to send US deliveries to Cuba stops taking orders
Summary
According to ABC News, an online portal used by Cubans in the United States to send remittances and consumer goods to relatives in Cuba has stopped taking orders. The disruption affects a channel many families rely on for everyday support, highlighting how changes in cross-border services can quickly affect household finances on the island.
Why this matters
This matters because remittances and small package deliveries are an important part of Cuba's informal household economy and a major way Cuban-Americans help relatives on the island. When a major delivery platform stops operating, it can deepen shortages and increase pressure on families already facing economic strain.
