About the West African CFA Franc
The West African CFA Franc (XOF, FCFA) is the official currency of the eight UEMOA member states — Senegal, Côte d'Ivoire, Mali, Burkina Faso, Benin, Togo, Niger and Guinea-Bissau. It is issued by the Central Bank of West African States (BCEAO) and pegged to the Euro at the fixed rate of 655.957 XOF per 1 EUR — the same parity as the Central African XAF, though the two are not interchangeable. The fixed peg has held continuously since the Euro's launch in 1999. Since 30 September 2025, BCEAO's PI-SPI regional instant-payment system has made individual transfers free and instant across all 8 UEMOA wallets, dramatically reducing the cost of remitting XOF within the union for ordinary users. EUR-XOF flows from the French, Belgian and Italian diaspora are by far the largest UEMOA inbound corridor.
About the US Dollar
The US Dollar (USD, $) is the world's primary reserve currency and the de facto reference rate for most African remittance pricing. It is issued by the Federal Reserve System and subdivided into 100 cents. For African corridors, the USD plays two distinct roles: as the on-the-wire settlement currency that originating remittance providers use to hedge between markets, and as the unit of account that diaspora senders most often think in. When operators quote a USD-to-local-currency rate, the difference between that rate and the interbank mid-market — the spread — is where most of the corridor's cost is hidden, often dwarfing the visible send fee. For receivers in countries with thin USD interbank markets such as Sierra Leone or Mozambique, the published rate can lag the interbank reference by several percentage points.
