Sending money from Europe to Tanzania

In Tanzania, mobile-money wallets such as M-Pesa, Tigo Pesa and Airtel Money are the usual way to receive funds, alongside bank deposits in shillings (TZS).

When you send Euro (EUR) to Tanzania, most of the cost is the exchange-rate markup baked into the rate, not the upfront fee. RemitBeat compares the live EUR → TZS rate across Wise, Remitly, Sendwave, WorldRemit, Western Union and more, benchmarks each against the mid-market rate, and ranks them by the amount that actually arrives in TZS — so you can see the genuinely cheapest option rather than the one with the flashiest headline fee.

Sending money EUR to TZS — your questions

What is the best rate to send money from Europe to Tanzania today?+
As of the latest update, the best value provider for EUR to TZS is NALA, with an effective rate of 2930.30 TZS per EUR and no transfer fee. Rates change throughout the day, so always check the live comparison before sending.
What is the mid-market EUR/TZS exchange rate right now?+
The current mid-market (interbank) rate is about 2942.0643 TZS per EUR. This is the "real" rate before any provider markup — RemitBeat shows how far each provider's quote sits from it.
What is a hidden markup, and how much does it cost me?+
Many transfer apps advertise "$0 fee" but bake their margin into a worse exchange rate. That gap between the provider's rate and the mid-market rate is the hidden markup. RemitBeat calculates it for every quote so you can compare the true, all-in cost rather than just the headline fee.
How can I receive EUR transfers in Tanzania?+
Most providers we track deliver to mobile money (M-Pesa, Tigo Pesa, Airtel) or a bank account in Tanzania. The comparison groups providers by payout method — mobile money and bank — so you only compare options that support the way your recipient wants to be paid.
How does RemitBeat make money if comparison is free?+
When you click through to a provider we may earn a small affiliate commission. You pay exactly the same as going to the provider directly — the rate you see is the rate you get. This keeps the comparison free and unbiased.
