Money Transfers in Ouagadougou: what to know

Payments in Burkina Faso
The BCEAO operates the regional RTGS and the UEMOA-wide clearing in which Burkinabè banks participate, SICA-UEMOA interconnects card and mobile-money services across the union, and mobile wallets from Orange Money, Moov Money and competitors carry the majority of everyday person-to-person payments in a cash-heavy economy; the country remains in the UEMOA monetary zone despite its wider political realignment in the Sahel.
