TapTap Send Review
Zero-fee transfers to Africa
TapTap Send is owned by the Zepz Group (same parent as WorldRemit) and offers zero-fee transfers to Africa and some Asian countries. TapTap earns only through a small exchange rate margin — making it extremely cost-effective for smaller amounts. It is particularly popular for UK and European senders to Nigeria, Ghana, Kenya, and Senegal.
