        Crypto Accounts in Cotonou: what to know

        Crypto accounts let people in Cotonou, Benin buy, hold and in some cases earn interest on digital assets, and convert back to XOF (West African CFA franc (issued by the BCEAO)). Crypto rules differ widely by country and change often.

        Currency in Benin
        XOF · West African CFA franc (issued by the BCEAO)
        Local accounts in Benin
        Beninese accounts use the 28-character IBAN starting BJ (BJ + 2 check digits followed by the bank/branch code and account number), the regional UEMOA layout.
        Payments in Benin
        Payments clear through the UEMOA's SICA-UEMOA with STAR for large-value settlement, while MTN MoMo and Moov Money carry most everyday digital payments in Benin and Cotonou's fintech scene grows around those wallets.

        Before you sign up in Cotonou

        Check whether the platform is registered with Banque Centrale des États de l'Afrique de l'Ouest (BCEAO) or another authority that oversees crypto in Benin. Crypto is volatile and is usually not covered by deposit protection.
