Transfer details
For a one-off GBP transfer to Senegal, I suggest picking the cheapest option which is TapTap Send.
TapTap Send was the cheapest on 6 of the 30 days it quoted £6,000 transfers to Senegal.
On a 6,000 GBP transfer, TapTap Send delivers the most XOF.
The best option will change depending on how much you actually send, so I suggest to get the best GBP/XOF rate.
You have 3 ways to pay, including debit card, bank transfer, and credit card.
Paying from your bank is usually the fastest, since most companies connect to your banking app via Open Banking.
Anywhere a debit card works, Apple Pay and Google Pay usually do too.
First time round you'll need to confirm your name, date of birth, address and a photo ID.
On a £6,000 transfer the verification is normally instant but can take a couple of hours.
How much GBP you send to Senegal heavily affects the best ways and the cheapest options. Use the table below to check how the cheapest options change and how much more you'd get by comparing.
Our analysis shows TapTap Send was the cheapest in 19% of the transfers from £6,000 it quoted, and in 46% of all the transfers it quoted.

Each line shows what the recipient gets when you send £6,000, after fees, as quoted by each company. The mid-market line shows what £6,000 converts to at the real exchange rate, with no fees or markup. Rates are checked once a day. Sponsored placements never affect this data. There are no bank quotes for this period.
The dashed line is what you'd get at the mid-market rate with no fees, and the blue line is the cheapest option that day.
When the blue line goes above the dashed one, you're getting more XOF per GBP than the mid-market rate can offer.
This could be due to money transfer offers, FX rate adjustments, or market competitiveness.
In the past month, a money transfer company beat the mid-market rate on 1 of the last 30 days.
Right now, TapTap Send pays 4,716,000 XOF on 6,000 GBP, which is 4,155.28 XOF more than the mid-market amount, so it's a good deal (pretty much free money).
Today's payout is the highest in the past month.
If you need to send money now, it's a good time to send.
Just because a company is the cheapest today doesn't mean it's always the best option for sending money to Senegal.
We've tracked 209 comparisons to check how often today's top companies were the cheapest across 7 amounts over the past month.

Different companies can come out cheapest depending on the day and the amount you send.
To keep things fair, we only count the comparisons each company appeared in, and only analyse companies that appeared in at least 50% of all comparisons (so occasional cheapest options don't skew it).
Today TapTap Send is the cheapest and gets you the most XOF, but it was the cheapest in only 46% of the 209 comparisons it appeared in over the past month.
Regency FX (today's second cheapest) was the cheapest in 77% of its comparisons, so if you send money to Senegal regularly, it's worth comparing it with TapTap Send before each transfer.
If it's a one-off transfer, go with TapTap Send, since it's the cheapest right now.
There are many ways to send money to Senegal from the UK, including app, currency broker, online, in person, multi-currency account, and global business account, and more.
For small & frequent transfers
If you send small amounts back home to Senegal, say weekly or monthly, an app like TapTap Send is the easiest and cheapest way to do it.
It charges £0 in fees, has -0.09% markup, lets you save recipient details, and XOF will arrive in minutes.
Over the past month, TapTap Send was the cheapest app on 77% of the days it appeared for £6,000 transfers.
For one off transfers
Sending money online is good for occasional medium sized XOF transfers, around £1,000 - £5,000.
Online companies like Xe often have higher limits and/or first time promos.
Of the 7 companies we compared, Xe is the cheapest online service and will get you CFA4,677,717.60 on a £6,000 transfer.
In our comparisons over the past month, it was the cheapest online service on 24 of the 30 days it quoted.
For large transfers
Currency brokers like Regency FX are the best for £10,000+ transfers (things like house deposits, education fees, relocation, etc.).
You get a dedicated account manager to handle your transfer to Senegal, and real human support.
Regency FX charges no fees on large transfers, but adds 0.27% markup on top of the current GBP/XOF rate.
The markup gets better the more GBP you send, so we suggest .
Our analysis shows Regency FX was the cheapest broker in 96% of the transfers from £6,000 it quoted.
For spending and receiving
Multi-currency accounts let you hold and spend CFA Franc BCEAO abroad like a local.
Revolut offers the best multi-currency account.
With it, converting £6,000 to XOF will get you CFA4,634,524 after fees.
If you don’t have XOF in your account, your GBP will auto-convert whenever you pay with Revolut in Senegal.
Once you have XOF in the account, there are no extra fees from Revolut for spending or holding it (local ATM charges may still apply).
Over the past month, it came out cheapest among multi-currency accounts on 100% of days.
For business transfers
Global accounts are for UK businesses making payments overseas.
For suppliers, freelancers, salaries, or invoices in Senegal, companies like Airwallex, WorldFirst, or Payoneer handle batch and recurring payments a consumer app simply can’t.
Pay-in and pay-out methods will affect how much GBP you deposit and how much XOF your recipient gets. Use the table below to see how different options change how much you pay and what they get.

There are a few nuances you should consider before sending GBP to Senegal such as limits, taxes, and safety.
Right now, these are the best money transfer options for a £6,000 transfer to Senegal:
Cheapest way to send money to Senegal
The cheapest way is to use TapTap Send, pay in with a debit card and withdraw via cash pickup. You will get CFA4,716,000, which is 0.36% more than the next best option.
Fastest way to send money to Senegal
The fastest way is to use TapTap Send via debit card deposit and cash pickup for pay out. You get CFA4,716,000 and it will arrive in minutes.
There is no legal limit and no tax on sending your own money abroad.
Main hard limits come from your bank or money transfer company, often around £10,000 to £25,000 online (which you can usually increase in the app).
Also, the "£10,000 declaration" only applies to physically carrying cash through the border, not online transfers.
And on bigger GBP/XOF transfers (roughly £10,000 up) expect a source-of-funds check, such as a payslip or a statement.
These are anti-money-laundering checks, and they can hold your transfer up, so have the documents ready.
Your cost is the fee plus the exchange-rate margin.
For example, sending £6,000 with TapTap Send will get you 4,716,000 XOF, that’s including £0 fee and -0.09% in exchange rate markup.
There is no UK tax for the act of sending money to Senegal.
And, regular gifts from your normal income are free of inheritance tax straight away, with no cap and no seven-year wait, as long as you can still cover your usual living costs.
Only ever use a provider authorised by the FCA, which you can check on the FCA register in under a minute.
The rules in place for any scams cover domestic pound transfers only, on a transfer abroad you're less protected.
Always confirm who you're really sending to before you send, because there's little recourse after.
