Money Transfers in Bissau: what to know

Money transfer services let people in Bissau, Guinea-Bissau send money abroad or receive it in XOF (West African CFA franc). The real cost is the fee plus the gap between the provider's exchange rate and the mid-market rate, so compare both.

XOF · West African CFA franc
Local accounts in Guinea-Bissau
Guinea-Bissau has no IBAN registry entry: accounts are addressed with the bank's code plus the bank-specific account number (BCEAO member states commonly use a format ending in the country code GW in domestic correspondence, but this is not an international IBAN), and cross-border payments require the bank's SWIFT/BIC.
Payments in Guinea-Bissau
Regional settlement within UEMOA runs through the BCEAO's payment systems, with the STAR-UEMOA clearing house and SICA-UEMOA card switch connecting the union's banks, and mobile money (notably Orange Money and MTN-linked services) functioning as the main instant retail rail in a country with few bank branches; the CFA franc is pegged to the euro through the French Treasury, and remittances from the diaspora are a significant part of household income.
