Orange Maroc review

The listed transfer fee is 0 MAD on transfers from abroad into Morocco. That is the only transfer cost stated, and delivery is Instant, so the price and the speed are both easy to judge before you send.

Delivery is Instant for transfers from abroad into Morocco, which suits a relative who needs money for something urgent. The recipient then takes the money from a wallet, a cash point or a bank account.

The recipient can take the money in the ways listed under wallet, cash pickup and bank: a wallet, a cash point or a bank account. Someone without easy bank access can still collect, while someone saving can have it paid into an account.

Orange Money is run by MEDI TELECOM SA and is based in Morocco, so you are dealing with a telecom company rather than a bank. That shape suits sending money to family in Morocco rather than holding an everyday balance.

Support runs on help centre and chat, so a help centre and a live chat cover most questions. There is no listed phone or email channel, which matters if you would rather sort a problem in a call.

On the published transfer fee it looks competitive, at 0 MAD. Skrill and PayPal Colombia both add a share of the amount on some funding routes, and Paysera is free in euro to SEPA and Paysera users. The cheapest option depends on how you pay.

The money is set up to move onwards rather than sit still, with delivery of Instant and payouts to a wallet, a cash point or a bank account under wallet, cash pickup and bank. Someone building a savings habit should compare services built for holding a balance.
