Pros and cons
Pros
- Transfers carry a fee amount of $0, so the sender pays nothing on top of the amount sent
- Delivery is Instant, so the recipient is paid without a wait
- Payouts go to a bank and wallet
- Help is available by chat, email and phone
Cons
- Cash pickup and card are not among its payout methods (bank and wallet), so a recipient needs a bank account or a wallet to be paid
- A cross currency send still depends on the rate applied on the day, since the listed transfer fee amount is $0
Who it suits
- People sending money to a bank account or a wallet in the African market
- Small businesses paying suppliers who need Instant delivery
- Anyone who wants the money paid into a bank and wallet
Who should look elsewhere
- Skrill, if you want a transfer funded by card, since Skrill charges a share of the amount for card funding
- Paysera, if you send to Europe, since Paysera publishes pricing per currency and corridor
- PayPal Colombia, if you pay straight from a PayPal balance or a linked bank account

Frequently asked questions
What does bitsika charge to send money?+
Transfers are charged at $0, so a transfer carries no cost from the sender's side. The rate applied to a cross currency send on the day still shapes the final amount the recipient receives.
How quickly does the money arrive?+
Delivery is Instant, so a transfer can reach the recipient without a multi day wait. That suits a sender who needs the funds in a bank account or a wallet quickly rather than later.
How does the recipient get the money once it lands?+
Payouts are offered to a bank and wallet, so the recipient needs a bank account or a mobile wallet to be paid. A Instant transfer landing in a wallet is useful where the recipient has no bank account to receive into.
Who runs bitsika and where is it based?+
The service is run by BlockAfranew, Inc., which is named in its terms, and it is based in Ghana. Both details come from the published terms and conditions, so the company behind the app is clear before you send.
How do I get help if a transfer goes wrong?+
Support runs on chat, email and phone, so you can reach a person by in-app chat, email or phone. That mix matters for a transfer that has not completed, since phone and chat sit alongside email for tracing a payment.
How do I reach bitsika, and on what platforms?+
The service is run from a mobile app published on the app store for GH, and transfers are set up from it. Help is available in-app through chat, email and phone, and a transfer then pays out to a bank and wallet.
How do the fees compare with Skrill and Paysera?+
bitsika lists a transfer fee amount of $0, while Skrill charges a percentage by funding method and Paysera prices each transfer by currency and corridor. On the stated charges, bitsika is the simplest to plan a budget around.
