Foreign exchange rates are highly volatile, and it may seem difficult to decide the best timing for your next transfer to Seychelles from Benin.

What's the cheapest way to send money to Seychelles from Benin?

One of the most important things to watch out for is hidden fees when sending money to Seychelles from Benin. Most of the time, you will get ripped off if you have no choice, or very few choices. For instance, if you send money to Seychelles using your bank, you are most likely paying high fees. You may also not be getting the best exchange rate on your Seychellois Rupee foreign exchange transaction.

RemitFinder partners with many money transfer companies that provide you with cheap options to ensure you get the best XOF to Seychelles exchange rate. The more choices you have, the better yield you get. This is because you can get creative with exchange rates and fees to determine the cheapest option for you. For instance, one company may be giving a very high rate but charging a steep fee as well, while another provider may have a slightly lower rate, but 0 fee. All of this also depends on how much amount you send. It is very much possible that as the transaction amount varies, one money transfer operator gives a better return than the other, and vice versa.

Our partners also provide our customers with many offers and promotions. These could be seasonal (around key holidays and festivals) or ongoing. Making use of these deals will further reduce your cost, and help ensure you use the cheapest way to send money to Seychelles from Benin.


Should I use my bank to transfer money from Benin to Seychelles?

One of the first thoughts that may come to your mind when sending money overseas could be to rely on your bank to execute your Benin to Seychelles money transfer transaction. While there is convenience involved in using your bank (after all, you have an account with your bank already, and could even initiate the transfer from the comfort of your home using mobile banking), it is advisable to compare some other options as well.

With the increased penetration of the internet into our lives, a lot of financial transactions have also moved online. For example, we pay our bills, buy all types of commodities, book our vacation, and enjoy all types of entertainment over the internet. It is, therefore, no surprise that the global remittance ecosystem also has a significant digital footprint. Especially for a popular market like XOF to SCR transfers.

Given this, there are umpteen additional options to send money to Seychelles instead of just your Benin bank. It is very likely that many money transfer companies are offering better exchange rates compared to your bank, as well as potentially lower fees. If that is the case, you could maximize the value of your CFA Franc BCEAO even more so that your recipient in Seychelles gets the maximum amount.


How to send money from Benin to Seychelles fast?

If you need to convert XOF to SCR as fast as possible, there are definite steps you can take that will help you do so. You could pay for your transfer with cash, as well as have your recipient do a cash pickup for payout - both of these methods will speed up your money transfer.

That said, handling cash could be a safety issue given that both the sender and receiver have to physically carry cash (most agent locations are located in physical stores, malls, and retail outlets which may or may not be in a physically safer area). Additionally, due to the extra costs involved to set up and maintain physical locations, cash transactions tend to get a worse foresign exchange rate (contrasted with online/digital transfers). So, another option to move money quickly from Benin to Seychelles could be sending it to a mobile wallet. This would entail some slowness compared to cash transfers, but would be more safe.

Apart from the above, there are many other factors that can have an impact on your CFA Franc BCEAO to Seychellois Rupee funds transfer speed. To arm you with all the knowledge you need to distinguish faster from slower remittance providers, we crafted a complete guide to remittances; this article touches upon everything you need to know to make the fastest money transfers to Seychelles.
