How to send money from Nigeria to India

Pick a company

Start with the best service, which is Afriex at 22,723.65 INR for a ₦360,000 transfer.

Afriex was the cheapest on 30 of the 30 days it quoted ₦360,000 transfers to India.

Most of the transfer apps you see advertised only bring money into Nigeria, but companies above can send it out.

Fund your transfer

You have 1 ways to pay, including bank transfer.

A transfer from your banking app is instant and free, and it's how nearly everyone pays.

Verify and send

First time round you'll need your BVN and a photo ID.

Get it done before the day you need to send, since it's the usual reason a first transfer stalls.

Check the rate you're shown against the day's rate before you confirm.

NGN/INR Exchange Rate History

Is today a good time to send money from Nigeria to India?

The cheapest way to send NGN to INR can change every day, or stay with the same company all month.

We've compared the mid-market rate with the cheapest option each day (today it's Afriex), across 30 days of comparisons for 360,000 NGN transfers to India.

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 INR 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 INR on every transfer from Nigeria.

Right now, Afriex pays 22,723.65 INR on 360,000 NGN, which is 2,247.39 INR less than the mid-market amount.

Today's payout isn't the best this month though, since the highest receive amount was 23,573.77 INR.

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.

Cheapest over time

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 India.

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

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.

Ways to send money from Nigeria to India

Cheapest way to send NGN

Ways to fund NGN and receive INR in India

With Afriex, paying by bank transfer and receiving through a bank deposit is the cheapest combination. Sending ₦360,000 gives your recipient 22,723.65 INR.

For paying in NGN, you can use bank transfer.

I suggest funding the NGN side by bank transfer

Use bank transfer to add NGN from your Nigerian account.

NIP moves the money to the specialist within Nigeria, then the specialist handles the cross-border transfer to India over internal network.

They can receive INR using bank deposit.

To receive money as bank deposit (straight to their bank account), enter their bank and account details in India.

Things to know before sending NGN to India

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/INR options

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

Cheapest way to send money to India

The cheapest option is Afriex, funded by bank transfer with bank deposit for the payout. Your recipient gets 22,723.65 INR, which is 0.5% more than the next best option.

Fastest way to send money to India

The fastest option is Afriex. Pay by bank transfer and choose bank deposit for the payout. Your recipient gets 22,723.65 INR in minutes - 24 hours.

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 India.

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
