SimbaPay rolls out mobile money service in Ghana and Uganda

London-based digital money transfer provider, SimbaPay, has announced the launch of its money transfer service to Ghana and Uganda.

Using the SimbaPay app or website, Ghanaians and Ugandans living in Europe can now send money home instantly.

“This is the perfect Christmas gift to Ghanaians and Ugandans living in Europe who have been asking when SimbaPay will expand coverage to their home countries,” said the firm’s Chief Executive Nyasinga Onyancha.

Users just need to have a bank account, debit card or credit card to use the SimbaPay app from any mobile phone, tablet or computer.

Transfers made using SimbaPay are credited within seconds to recipients’ mobile money wallets such as MTN Mobile Money.

The firm said this eliminates the inconvenience of queues and old-school paperwork. SimbaPay also delivers via mobile money transfer and bank account to other African countries such as Nigeria and Kenya.
