The cost of sending FCFA10,000

FCFA10,000 is a common mid-size amount in Burkina Faso — roughly a week's shopping in Ouagadougou. Burkina Faso runs on Orange Money and Moov Money, in the WAEMU-zone CFA franc.

Two operators share most of the market; the banded tariff and rural agent availability make the difference. At 0% effective, this is where comparing providers pays most — the relative gap between cheapest and priciest is wide around here.

At FCFA10,000, this amount falls in a pricing band where a percentage fee (1%, capped at FCFA4500) applies at the reference provider. This is the top band: the tariff does not change above it. Keeping money on the wallet to pay avoids any cash-out fee.
