Features
Send money to people on other networks and even those without phones!
A unique code is generated automatically on sending money. The recipient uses the code to withdraw the money and they don’t need to have a phone.
With Afrimoney you can send or receive money as much as 15 Million Leones at the most competitive transaction rates.
Send and receive money securely 24/7 all through the year. Our superior network ensures that no matter where you are or what time it is you continue transacting seamlessly.
If you have sent money to a person you have never transacted with, he/she will not be able to confirm the transfer as he doesn’t know your phone number. After sending money, you have to call the person to inform them and tell them your number if they don’t know it. They will receive an SMS requesting them to dial *161# and accept the transfer by entering the sender’s number. Therefore, if you have sent money to the wrong person, they will not know your number. All the amount transferred and the charges will be sent back to you automatically after 15 days if the transfer is not confirmed
