How to send money from Kenya to Nigeria

Pick a company

Start with the cheapest option, which is Grey. It will get you the most NGN on a KES 32,400 transfer.

This heavily depends on how much you send, so I suggest to get the best KES/NGN rate.

Fund your transfer

You have 1 ways to pay, including bank transfer.

Paying from your M-Pesa balance is quickest way to fund the transfer (but you'll need to top it up with cash first).

Verify and send

You'll need your ID and your KRA PIN to register.

Nobody legitimate will ask for your PIN to reverse a transfer or verify anything, so treat that as the end of the conversation.

Excise duty applies to the fee

Kenya charges 15% excise duty on fees for money-transfer services.

It applies to the fee charged by the bank, mobile operator or money transfer company, not to the KSh32,400 being sent.

Check the CBK licence when in doubt

Use the Central Bank of Kenya's directory to check a money-remittance company.

A legitimate company should also display its CBK licence or authorisation at its premises.
