How to get the most from Europe to Africa

  • Compare what arrives, not the fee.Most of the cost is usually the exchange-rate markup, so a "no fee" offer can still deliver less.
  • Match the payout method. Mobile money, bank deposit and cash pickup are priced differently; compare providers that pay out the way your recipient wants.
  • Check how you pay. Paying by bank transfer is often cheaper than paying by card, though it can be slower.
  • Treat first-transfer bonuses as one-offs. They are shown separately on each corridor page; compare standard rates for regular sends.

Is it safe?

Send with a provider authorised by a national financial regulator in the EU, and only send to someone you know. The providers RemitBeat compares are established, regulated money transfer services. RemitBeat itself is a comparison site: we never hold your money or ask for your bank details or PIN, and you complete the transfer on the provider's own app or website.
