F.A.Q.
How can my beneficiary in Nigeria receive the money?
The recipient needs to present the reference number provided by the sender and a valid identity document at the payment point. The name on the ID document must coincide with the name on the transfer. In case of payment to a bank account, the payment will be automatically credited to the bank account indicated at the time of the transaction.

How do I make changes to a transaction?
If you’ve already made the transfer, it can only be changed by calling our customer support service. If the beneficiary has received the money or it has already been paid, the transaction cannot be changed or cancelled. If you have more questions, get in touch with the customer service team on 02 227 18 20.
Can I get a refund?
Refunds are possible as long as the transfer has not yet been paid at the destination. For payments to bank accounts, make sure that the account number is correct, because once the money has been paid in, Moneytrans cannot reverse the transaction. For payments to mobile phones, refunds can be requested as long as the beneficiary has not used the money. For money transfers made from our agencies, the customer has to request the refund in person. For money transfers made online, the customer has to request the refund from the online application. Moneytrans will receive the notification, the refund will be requested to the partner, and - once confirmed - it will be cancelled in the system and the refund will be requested on the customer's credit card.
What exchange rate do you apply?
It’s always better to plan your money transfers in advance. Currency exchange rates are constantly changing, and it may be expensive to send money today, but cheaper tomorrow. To help with this problem and ensure you get the best price for your remittances, the Moneytrans online money transfer service provides a calculator so that you can find out the cost of your transfer and choose the best time to send money.
How long does it take to deliver money to Nigeria from the time of sending?
The delivery time is on the same day for cash pick-up. If payment is made into a bank account, the money will be available within the hour.
What’s the time limit for receiving money over the counter?
For Nigeria, the transfer is available for collection over the counter for 30 days; after this the transfer will be cancelled by the agent at the destination.
How are the prices calculated for online money transfers?
The first factor is the amount of money sent. Commissions are calculated as a percentage of the amount transferred, and this varies depending on the currency. As a guide, consult the Moneytrans calculator, which will give the actual price of your transfer. For example, Moneytrans charges a fixed commission for certain destinations, which is lower than most commissions charged by shops or exchange offices. Furthermore, we offer a special deal for new customers, with zero commission so you can try our service free of charge. The second factor is the exchange rate. With Moneytrans, you always get the exchange rate shown on our calculator, so you’ll know exactly how much your beneficiary will receive at the other end. A transparent and fast solution! The exchange rate is set by the banks and institutions that work with Moneytrans in the destination countries. Since Moneytrans has special agreements in 140 countries, your beneficiaries will get a better deal than with banks and most online money transfer services. Bear in mind that in addition to a lower fixed commission, our online service usually offers a better exchange rate. In short, with online transfers the commission is generally lower, so more money reaches your loved ones.
How exactly does Moneytrans protect my money?
With our Moneytrans online money transfer service, your payment is processed instantly using 3D Secure technology, which guarantees stress-free transfers, and you’ll receive confirmation of your payment by email or SMS. Additional verification measures enhance security and compliance with payment legislation. Moneytrans also encourages users to protect their accounts, create secure passwords and identify phishing emails and messages. However, when it comes to your money, issues may arise, and peace of mind when choosing a company for your currency exchanges is also an important aspect. At Moneytrans we rely on a team of professionals to take care of our customers and resolve any issues or problems you may have. We also offer our services by live chat, email, phone or fax, so you can contact us whichever way you prefer. Attention round the clock for your peace of mind!
