Mama Money understands the many challenges faced by traditional money transfer services in Zimbabwe and we have created innovative solutions as a result. In the month of December we received over 11,000 new Zimbabwean customers.
While our competitors charge an average of 10% in fees, we’re happy to help by reducing costs so that more money arrives home to your loved ones. As a result, we offer the lowest fees with just 5% or less for guaranteed USD transfers from SA to Zim.
We are proud to play a small part in helping to bring the price down and there is still a lot more we want to do to help support the Zimbabwean community in South Africa.
Sending money to Zimbabwe with our mobile transfer app is both simple and easy to use. You can enjoy regular updates and track your money every step of the way.
