About MoMo

Screenshot of MoMo website

MTN MoMo is a mobile money service for individual consumers who need to send and receive money, pay for everyday services, and make purchases from a phone.

Key capabilities include:

  • Local and international transfers, allowing users to send and receive money for personal transactions
  • Bill payments and recurring payments for services such as utilities, school fees, and subscriptions
  • Airtime and data purchases, including support for non-MTN networks (where available)
  • Merchant payments, including QR code scan-to-pay, plus options such as CashOut, deposits, and withdrawals

Available on Android and iOS.

Built primarily for B2C use cases, including peer-to-peer transfers, day-to-day bill payments, and small in-person purchases.

It is notable in African markets for its availability across multiple MTN operating countries, including Ghana, Côte d'Ivoire, Cameroon, Uganda, Zambia, Benin, Liberia, Rwanda, and the Republic of Guinea, and for extending beyond transfers into in-app payments such as virtual cards for online shopping, plus loans and savings options (availability varies by market).
