Mama is here to help and our mission is to support the Bangladeshi community by making it easier for you to send money from South Africa to Bangladesh to your loved ones back home.
Known for its vibrant history, ancient archeology and rich traditions, Bangladesh is home to Islamic, Hindu and Buddhist communities. Mama Money is proud to revolutionise the way Bangladeshis send and receive money and have created innovative transfer solutions as a result.
Sending money home to your family and community members has never been this easier with Mama's low fees and our ever-expanding payout network. Now you can send money home to Bangladesh with fees as low as 5%! Experience the convenience of sending money home to your loved ones in Bangladesh via a bank account, mobile wallet or cash pick-up.
You will notice that other money transfer services charge an average of 10% in fees, but here at Mama Money we want to help reduce the costs of sending money home to your loved ones. As a result we offer the lowest fees with just 5% or less for money transfers from South Africa to Bangladesh.
When it comes to sending money from South Africa to Bangladesh there are a range of common challenges often faced with using traditional banking methods.
Some of these challenges include:
Wire transfers and physical checks may leave users open to fraud or theft. For instance, your personal details can be used or your personal checks can be stolen. Physical checks could also get lost or stolen resulting in missing funds for the sender or receiver during the transaction.
Traditional money transfers often take time to process, causing delays in the delivery of your funds to your family and friends. This can be inconvenient, especially during emergency situations or even special occasions.
Transferring money internationally can be quite costly for users when it comes to the transaction fees when sending money home to Bangladesh.
Traditional money transfer methods can be inconvenient, as it sometimes requires the sender or receiver to physically visit a bank in order to make the transfer or receive the funds.
When dealing with checks or cash, you could put yourself at risk of theft as there is no guarantee of the safety of your money. With Mama Money we offer an added level of protection with security measures in place so you can feel confident that your money will be delivered safely to Bangladesh.
Most banking services require you to visit a physical branch in person and wait in line to be seen.

In addition, bank transactions often have a long processing time that can take up to two business days for it to be completed. Mama Mama transfers are completed instantly so you can enjoy faster transaction times to receive the money on the same day.
