Send money to Africa easily this holiday season. Learn how to transfer local currency, USDT, or Bitcoin using Bitnob, fast, simple, and reliable.
The holidays have a way of stretching across borders. Even if you’re not travelling home, December still comes with responsibility, rent to cover, groceries to buy, school fees to settle before the new year, and family plans that depend on timely support. For many people living abroad, sending money to Africa during the holidays isn’t optional. It’s part of showing up.
What makes it difficult is that December is also when international transfers become slow and expensive. Banks take longer to process payments, fees quietly increase, and transfers that should take hours stretch into days. At a time when money needs to arrive quickly, the systems meant to move it often fall short.
The easiest way to send money this holiday season is to avoid those bottlenecks altogether, and that’s where Bitnob comes in.
Three Easy Ways to Send Money on Bitnob
Different situations call for different options. Bitnob supports three simple ways to send money, all from the same app.
1. Sending Local Currency on Bitnob
If both you and the recipient are in supported countries, sending local currency is the most straightforward option.
How it works:
- Open the Bitnob app
- Select Transfer and choose ‘Transfer to Bank or Momo’
- Select the currency and fill in the amount to transfer
- Enter the recipient’s details
- Confirm and send
This works well for everyday support, quick transfers, simple payouts, and familiar banking rails.
2. Sending USDT on Bitnob
USDT is ideal when sending money across borders, especially during busy periods like December.
How it works:
- Open your Bitnob app and tap ‘Transfer’
- Tap ‘Transfer as USDT’
- Select the USDT network to send to. (Ensure the network you choose to send to matches the withdrawal network)
- Enter the recipient’s USDT address
- Confirm the transaction
Once received, the recipient can withdraw in their local currency directly from Bitnob. This method helps avoid delays and reduces the friction that comes with traditional international transfers..
3. Sending Bitcoin (BTC) on Bitnob
Bitcoin is another option for instant cross-border value transfer, especially if you already hold BTC.
How it works:
- Open your Bitnob app and tap ‘Transfer’
- Tap ‘Transfer as BTC’
- Enter the recipient’s wallet address. Your recipient can be a BTC wallet address, lightning address or lightening invoice.
- Confirm the transaction

There’s no single best way, only what fits your situation.
- Sending within African countries? Local currency works best.
- Sending across borders and need speed? USDT is often the easiest.
