How can I get paid from abroad in Juba?

A global payment account gives you account details in currencies such as USD, EUR or GBP, so clients and marketplaces can pay you locally in their country. You then convert to SSP and withdraw.

What does it cost to convert to SSP?

Costs are the conversion margin plus any withdrawal fee to your local bank in South Sudan. Compare both, as they vary a lot between providers.

Who regulates international bank accounts & e-wallets in Juba?

Who uses global payment accounts in Juba?

Freelancers, remote workers, online sellers and small exporters in Juba use them to receive foreign income without opening bank accounts abroad.

Payments in South Sudan: Honest summary: South Sudan remains overwhelmingly a cash economy. Bank branch and mobile network coverage is limited outside Juba, formal digital payment rails are thin, and day-to-day transactions for most people are conducted in cash, with US dollars widely held alongside the pound. Banked transfers between South Sudanese banks settle through the Bank of South Sudan's arrangements and cross-border payments move over SWIFT, but there is no established national instant-payment or mobile-money network that visitors can rely on.
