The cost of withdrawing ₵50

Fifty cedis is the smallest round figure most agents will comfortably hand over, sitting right where the flat minimum gives way to the percentage.

Round amounts like this are easiest for agents to settle quickly, especially early in the day before floats run low.

A ₵50 withdrawal is in the 1% band (₵50 to ₵2,000): the fee is 1% of the amount, so GH₵0.50 here. This is the band where cost scales with the amount withdrawn.

The key point: at ₵2,000 that percentage stops and the fee becomes a flat GH₵20 cap. So ₵1,999 costs GH₵19.99 but ₵2,001 costs only GH₵20. If your withdrawal is near ₵2,000, aiming just above can be smart.

On MTN MoMo, you cash out at an agent; check your balance first via *170# → 6 (My Wallet).
