Each line shows what the recipient gets when you send ₦360,000, after fees, as quoted by each company. The mid-market line shows what ₦360,000 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 XAF per NGN than the mid-market rate can offer.

This could be due to money transfer offers, FX rate adjustments, or market competitiveness.

No company, app or bank beat the mid-market rate over the past month, meaning you lose a bit of XAF on every transfer from Nigeria.

Right now, Afriex pays 142,163.33 XAF on 360,000 NGN, which is 14,060.11 XAF less than the mid-market amount.

Today's payout isn't the best this month though, since the highest receive amount was 144,603.62 XAF.

If you can wait and want to get the most out of your transfer, create a rate alert and we'll let you know when the rate improves.

Picking the cheapest money transfer company

Just because a company is the cheapest today doesn't mean it's always the best option for sending money to Cameroon.

We've tracked 235 comparisons to check how often today's top companies were the cheapest across 8 amounts over the past month.

  1. AfriexAppeared in 111 comparisons

    Cheapest every time

  2. PayPal App (P2P Transfer)Appeared in 111 comparisons

  3. MoneyGram AgentAppeared in 111 comparisons

    Never the cheapest

Based on 235 comparisons across 8 amounts over the last 30 days.

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 Afriex is the cheapest, but it only quotes some of the amounts we track, so it isn't included in these figures.

Things to know before sending NGN to Cameroon

Sending money out of Nigeria is an access-to-FX problem first. The cheapest quote only matters if the company can legally accept NGN from a Nigerian resident.

Compare the available NGN/XAF options

There are 4 companies available for a ₦360,000 transfer to Cameroon, so the shortlist is smaller than it is for money coming into Nigeria.

Cheapest way to send money to Cameroon

The cheapest option is Afriex, funded by bank transfer with bank deposit for the payout. Your recipient gets 142,163.33 XAF, which is 0.84% more than the next best option.

Fastest way to send money to Cameroon

The fastest option is PayPal App (P2P Transfer). Pay by bank transfer and choose bank deposit for the payout. Your recipient gets 140,976.03 XAF in minutes.

NIP stops at the Nigerian border

NIP can move NGN from your bank to the transfer company within Nigeria, but it does not send the money to Cameroon.

The company still needs an approved cross-border route for the conversion and payout.

For a bank wire, money already held in a domiciliary account is generally easier to document than foreign currency bought informally and deposited as cash.

Check the CBN licence

Use the CBN's licensed institution records and confirm that the service is authorised for money transfers.

Do not send naira to a personal account or an unknown USDT seller because the quoted rate is better.

If the transfer fails, there may be no real way to recover it.

How we analyse the market
