Best methods from Italy

  • Apps (Wise, Lemfi, Grey, Sendwave) — strong EUR→NGN rates via SEPA, usually same-day.
  • SEPA bank transfer to a Nigerian dom account for larger sums.
  • Western Union / MoneyGram — cash pickup where the recipient needs it.

Getting the best euro-to-naira rate

Compare the recipient-gets figure against the live EUR to Naira rate — a “no fee” service can still deliver less through a weaker rate. See best ways to send money to Nigeria for the full route comparison.
