About Afrimoney in DR Congo
The DRC runs on M-Pesa (Vodacom), Airtel Money, Orange Money and Afrimoney, in a country-continent where mobile money reaches areas banks do not. The DRC is de facto dual-currency (Congolese franc and US dollar): many wallets and tariffs are denominated in USD, and the transfer currency matters as much as the operator.
On pricing, here is how Afrimoney structures its fees. Sending is priced by band : 1% above FC0. Cash-out is priced by band : 9% up to FC30,000; 5% FC30,001–FC100,000; 3% FC100,001–FC500,000; 2% above FC500,001. Receiving money is free; the cost sits at sending and at cashing out to physical cash.
