Mobile Wallet Transfers: Fast and Convenient

Sending money to Senegal is easier than ever with mobile wallet transfers. A mobile wallet is similar to a digital wallet, linked to a phone number. When you send money, it goes directly to the recipient's mobile account.

They can use the funds immediately to pay for goods and services, withdraw cash, or top up airtime. No bank account needed. No paperwork. Just fast, secure access to money, anytime, anywhere.

Why mobile wallets are a great choice:

  • Instant delivery – Funds usually arrive within minutes.
  • No bank account needed – Just a phone number with a registered wallet.
  • Available 24/7 – Send and receive money day or night, even on weekends.
  • Convenient in rural areas – No need to travel to a city or bank branch.

Mama Money supports these mobile wallet partners in Senegal:

  • Orange Money
  • E-Money
  • WAVE
  • Tigo Cash
  • Wizall

Tip: Ensure your recipient's mobile wallet is active and registered to receive transfers promptly.

Prefer Cash Pickup? Choose Western Union

If your recipient in Senegal prefers to collect money in person, Mama Money also offers cash pickup through our trusted partner, Western Union.

With thousands of locations across Senegal, your loved one can collect their funds quickly and safely, often within minutes of you sending.

Why choose Western Union for cash pickup?

Tip: Make sure your recipient brings a valid ID and the transfer reference number when collecting their money.
