Should I use my bank to transfer money from Niger to Eritrea?

Bank transfers have been a traditionally popular way to send money overseas from Niger to Eritrea. But, with the explosion of so many Fintech startups specializing in remittances, it is worth asking yourself if you should still be using your bank for sending funds internationally.

In general, banks tend to charge much higher fees compared to newer remittance companies that specialize in online operations. It is also possible that the XOF to ERN exchange rate you get from your bank may not be the best. In fact, high fees and below par exchange rates are two of the most popular ways banks make money on remittances.

We, therefore, recommend that before you use your Niger bank for your Eritrea money transfers, you explore various other options to carefully review your total cost (represented by transaction fees) as well as the exchange rate you will get. Combined, these two factors will have a direct impact on how much money your recipient gets from your transaction.


What is the fastest way to do a money transfer to Eritrea from Niger?

It could be a stressful experience if you need to rush money quickly from Niger to Eritrea. How do you decide which option to pick to ensure your funds arrive at the destination in the fastest possible way?

First, you should ensure that you are picking the right payment method to convert XOF to ERN. Most remittance companies will allow you to pay by cash, with credit or debit cards, via a direct bank transfer, through a wire transfer, and so on. Digital payment methods like wire transfers and bank transfers will certainly delay your transaction as compared to cash payments.

Similarly, on the receiving side, your recipient also has multiple options to collect their monies in Eritrean Nakfa. The payout choices generally include cash pickup, direct bank transfer, loading up a mobile wallet, and mobile airtime top up. If transaction speed is important, you could choose cash pickup if the receiver can access a close by pickup location. Just be aware that the exchange rate on cash transactions may not be the best, and there is risk in handling cash, especially for larger amounts. Otherwise, a mobile airtime top up or a bank deposit may be the next fastest possible ways unless there are bank holidays going on.

Foreign exchange transaction speed also depends on some additional factors like transfer amount, compliance and regulatory processes and vary from provider to provider. Check out our remittance guide to answer any questions you may have on how remittances work in general, and what factors affect the speed of your Niger to Eritrea money transfers.

Step by step guide to send money to Eritrea from Niger

Follow the below easy steps to send money to Eritrea from Niger.

  • If you are sending money for the first time with a provider, register an account with them. You will likely get a validation email, and optionally a validation text on your mobile as well. This ensures that it is indeed you who is creating your account.
  • You will also need to provide your national ID with a photo, and proof of address. Providing this information ensures the security of your account and helps in fraud prevention.
  • Add your payment method - this is how you pay for your transfer. Generally, you would want to use your Niger bank account to fund your transaction.
  • Add your recipient - provide details about who will receive the funds (can also be your own account in Eritrea).
  • Specify delivery method - specify how the recipient will get the proceeds. Choosing a bank account is usually the best, if one is available.
  • Add the transfer amount and start the transaction.

The provider will then work on your XOF to ERN remittance, and you should not have any additional action to take. Keep an eye on your email inbox as you should get notified about the progress of your transaction.

Whilst it's fairly straightforward to make an actual foreign exchange transaction online, the harder part may be choosing the right company for your overseas bank transfer.
