Local guide
Money transfer services let people in Mogadishu, Somalia send money abroad or receive it in SOS (Somali shilling (counterfeit notes are widespread; US dollars function as the de facto store of value and pricing unit for larger transactions)). The real cost is the fee plus the gap between the provider's exchange rate and the mid-market rate, so compare both.
Before you sign up in Mogadishu
Honest summary: Somalia's financial system is remittance-based. Formal bank coverage is thin, and the dominant rails are hawala-style money transfer companies and mobile money, most famously the EVC Plus wallet on the Hormuud network, which most Somalis use for payments, transfers and storage of value. The US dollar is widely used alongside the shilling. International remittances flow through money transfer operators rather than standard interbank rails, and de-risking by correspondent banks means transfer routes can change without notice.
