When it comes to sending money from South Africa to Cameroon there are a range of challenges often faced with using traditional banking methods.
Some of these common challenges include:
Wire transfers and physical money checks may leave users open to fraud or theft. For instance, your personal details can be used. 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 a long time to process, causing delays in the delivery of your funds to your family and friends in Cameroon. This can be inconvenient, especially during emergency situations or even special occasions such as Christmas.
Transferring money internationally can be quite costly for users when it comes to the transaction fees when sending money home to Cameroon.
Traditional money transfer methods can be inconvenient, as it sometimes requires the sender or receiver to physically visit a bank in order to send 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 Cameroon.
