Sendwave

Sendwave is a consumer mobile app for individuals who want to send international money transfers to family and friends abroad, including many African countries.

Key capabilities include:

• Send money from a phone using a linked debit card, with identity verification and an in-app flow designed to get users sending quickly.
• Multiple payout options in supported receive countries, including mobile money wallets, bank accounts, and cash pick-up locations.
• Fast delivery for many corridors, with transfers often arriving in seconds for mobile wallet payouts (timing can vary by partner rails and destination).
• Sendwave Wallet for US senders, which supports digital dollar transfers using USDC, where 1 digital dollar = 1 USD, so funds can remain in USD value until cashed out in supported markets.

Available on Android and iOS, with a web presence for country information, support, and app download.

Sendwave is built for B2C remittances, serving people in selected North American and European send markets who need to support recipients internationally.

It is notable in the Africa remittance context for its broad receive-country coverage (including Ghana, Kenya, Nigeria, Senegal, Uganda, Tanzania, Rwanda, South Africa, Zambia, Zimbabwe, and more), plus 24/7 in-app support and stated regulatory authorization to transmit money in the US, Canada, the UK, and the EU. The service is operated by Zepz (the group behind WorldRemit) and states it is trusted by over 1 million users worldwide.
