According to Bamiyo Awonusi, Regional Marketing Manager of TransferGo, “In today’s global society, customers should be able to make international money transfers to friends and family quickly, easily, and at low cost, the same way they can domestically.

We’re also delighted that we can deliver in the country’s local currencies, so our customers can support their friends and family in the way they want to.’’
Bamiyo sees great potential in the money transfer market in Africa. “More and more customers want a money transfer service that avoids excessive transaction fees. Their primary criteria are efficiency, speed, simplicity and of course security and reliability. We’re very excited to enter the African market. We believe customers living abroad will quickly realise the added value and simplicity TransferGo brings.”
