We want to inform you about all money transfer options available
Money transfers can be cheap, expensive, fast or even slow. Transferring money can be done through the mobile phone or by visiting an office.

Sending cash money through agencies means you pay quite some commission. Sometimes in these cases you could also find other ways of sending money, e.g. through cryptocurrencies and virtual bank accounts.
Bitcoin transfers
