        Money Transfers in Niamey: what to know

        Money transfer services let people in Niamey, Niger send money abroad or receive it in XOF (West African CFA franc (the UEMOA currency issued by the BCEAO and pegged to the euro)). The real cost is the fee plus the gap between the provider's exchange rate and the mid-market rate, so compare both.

        XOF · West African CFA franc (the UEMOA currency issued by the BCEAO and pegged to the euro)
        Local accounts in Niger
        Nigerien accounts use the IBAN starting NE, 28 characters in total: NE plus two check digits, a two-character bank code, a two-digit branch code and a 16-digit account number - the reference format for interbank transfers across UEMOA.
        Payments in Niger
        Regional transfers clear through SICA-UEMOA, the UEMOA interbank clearing system, with large-value settlement on the BCEAO's STAR system; domestically, mobile money carries most day-to-day digital payments through Airtel Money and Moov Money, whose agent networks reach far beyond Niamey's bank branches, while card spending rides Visa/Mastercard rails. Cash remains significant outside the main urban centres.
