About the US dollar and the Nigerian naira
The US dollar (USD, $) is the currency of the United States, Ecuador, El Salvador, Panama (alongside the balboa) and several other countries, issued by the Federal Reserve. The US dollar floats freely and is the world's main reserve currency; most other currencies are quoted against it.
The Nigerian naira (NGN, ₦) is the currency of Nigeria, issued by the Central Bank of Nigeria. The naira has had a market-based exchange rate since Nigeria unified its official and market rates in 2023–2024.
Sending money from USD to NGN
Millions of people send US dollars home as Nigerian naira every month. The amount your family receives depends on two things: the exchange rate the provider uses and its fees.
- Compare the amount received in NGN, not just the fee: a "zero fee" transfer can hide a weak exchange rate.
- Online transfer services and apps are usually cheaper than banks and cash counters at the airport.
- Sending a larger amount less often usually costs less overall than many small transfers.
- Check the rate above against the provider's quote: the closer it is to the mid-market rate, the better the deal.
- Use only licensed providers, and make sure the recipient's name matches their ID or bank account exactly.
