Tips for sending money from France to Madagascar
- 1
Use Mobile Money: Madagascar has high mobile money penetration. Providers like WorldRemit and Remitly allow direct transfers to Orange Money, Wave or M-Pesa.
- 2
Compare the margin on the exchange rate, not just the stated fees: that is where most of the cost sits. On the corridors we record, the best bank ranges from 0.6% to 5.2% of the amount sent — sometimes cheaper than a specialist, sometimes not.
- 3
Cash pickup recommended: Madagascar has limited banking access (20% des adultes ont un compte bancaire). Choose transfers with cash pickup available at Western Union and MoneyGram.
- 4
Avoid sending on weekends: exchange rates are less favorable. Prefer business days for your transfers.

The total cost combines the stated fee and the margin applied to the exchange rate. It varies by corridor, by provider and by amount — which is why we record a quote for several amounts rather than quoting a single figure.
