Questions about each
MoMo
Does MoMo charge a monthly fee?+
No. The monthly fee is VND 0, and the service runs on a no-monthly-fee model. The transfer fee is also listed at VND 0, with charges applying only once cash-out allowances are passed. The free tier is what most everyday users rely on.
What does it cost to change currency?+
Currency conversion costs 2%. That is above the 0.5% median across the brands on the site, and MoMo sits at 214 of 312 on this measure, so conversion is the weak point of an otherwise free service.
