Being able to send or transfer money to Nigeria from outside the country used to be a much easier task, thanks to a wide range of international money transfer services to pick from. A few months ago, the Central Bank shut down those operations.
For example, there was TransferWise, now Wise. It used to be one of the easiest means of international money transfers to Nigeria. Wise was affected by the clampdown and you can no longer send money to Nigeria using that service.
There are many such services that are no longer able to serve Nigeria.
The Central Bank have now come up with a list of approved international money operators through which you can transfer money to your loved ones in Nigeria.
Also, if you are based in Nigeria and do business with individuals and organisations outside the country, you need a way to have your payments get to you.
