The ways to send

  • Apps — naira in, shillings out to a bank or wallet where supported.
  • Bank transfer for documented purposes such as trade, tuition or travel.
  • An FX partner for larger, business-size payments.

Rate and documentation

East African currencies usually route through dollars, so compare the dollars or shillings delivered rather than the fee, and keep documentation. See sending abroad for the wider rules.
