Send money at the right time, maybe (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

remit

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'send money' is the definition.
'remit' can be an answer for 'send' (I've seen this before). I'm not sure about the 'money' bit.

'at the right time maybe' is the wordplay.
'at' means one lot of letters go next to another.
'the right' becomes 'r' (common abbreviation).
'maybe' indicates anagramming the letters.
'time' anagrammed gives 'emit'.
'r' next to 'emit' is 'REMIT'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for remit that I've seen before include "Desist from" , "Send < authorisation" , "Area of responsibility" , "Send; brief" , "Area(s) of responsibility or to be dealt with" .)
