DAR ES SALAAM, Tanzania, December 17, 2019/ -- Vodacom Tanzania (https://www.Vodacom.co.tz/) has partnered with leading online money transfer service WorldRemit (https://www.WorldRemit.com) to enable ten million M-Pesa customers to receive money directly to their M-Pesa wallets from friends and family living abroad.
The new service increases convenience for money transfer recipients in urban and rural areas of Tanzania as they can receive international money transfers directly to their phones, without the need for a bank account or internet connection.
Using the WorldRemit app, Tanzanians living abroad in over 50 countries, including the US, UK and Canada, can send money home 24/7 in just a few taps. This saves customers time and money as they do not have to travel to a traditional money transfer agent and pay expensive fees to send money home in cash.
WorldRemit is a global leader in international transfers to mobile money accounts and is connected to over 190 million accounts across 30 countries.
Epimack Mbeteni, Vodacom Tanzania M-Pesa Director, said: “This new partnership with WorldRemit enables us to tap into their global payments network, and help customers receive remittances into Tanzania from more countries around the world. It will enable families and friends in the country to conveniently receive money through M-Pesa from across the world. This is just one more way we are making our customers’ lives easier.
