What is the best way to send money to Nigeria online?

There are various money transfer service providers offering online remittance services, each with their own benefits. So, how do you know which is the best option for you? It depends on your preferences. Do you prefer to send money directly to bank accounts in Nigeria? Is cash pick-up your favoured payout method? Do you want to use your mobile for money transfers?

When selecting the right platform to send money to Nigeria online, it’s important to consider other factors, such as speed, flexibility and peace of mind. Knowing that your money transfer solution is secure and reliable is vital for most users.

Use a trusted money transfer solution

Our research has found that trust is the number one factor for users when deciding which solution is right for sending money abroad. With bank details and personal data involved, this is no real surprise. But it is also about having a service that your recipients feel comfortable with.
