MTN Cameroon offers low-cost money transfers that are quick, secure, and instant on its all-in-one mobile money platform MTN MoMo, further allowing bill payments, purchase of airtime, and sending money not only within Cameroon but abroad as well.

Active MTN subscribers initiate the send money process to their family, friends, or business associates by dialing the USSD code *126#, selecting 1 “sending money,” and following the prompts.

Transferring money in this way is quicker and easier than taking out cash or using a cheque, but some charges come along with it as it is not free to send money using the MTN Cameroon line. Even withdrawals cost something.

But MTN MoMo super rates and low fees in Cameroon are hard to beat: For example, sending amounts between 100 FCFA to 10,000 FCFA costs a 50 FCFA transfer fee, and a 0.5% transaction charge applies to amounts above that up to 200,000 FCFA.
