Send money to Kenya from the UK
Use the Express Remit app to prepare a transfer to Kenya. Select the destination, add your recipient and review the current options before sending.

Be part of everyday moments in Kenya
Whether you are helping with a household cost or contributing to a family plan, check the amount your recipient will receive in Kenyan shillings before confirming.
Know the currency
The currency of Kenya is the Kenyan shilling (KES). For a transfer from pounds to KES, check the currency and amount shown for the recipient in the app.
Prepare your recipient’s details
If you choose an available wallet service, verify the recipient’s registered name, mobile number and provider. A familiar phone number alone is not a substitute for checking the transfer details.
Does a transfer to Kenya always go to a mobile wallet?
No receiving method should be assumed. Select Kenya in Express Remit to see the options for your transfer, then confirm the chosen account or wallet details directly with the recipient.

- Sign in to Express Remit and choose Kenya.
- Add or select your recipient and choose an available receiving method.
- Enter the amount and review the rate, fee, recipient amount and delivery estimate.
- Confirm when the details are correct, then follow progress in the app.
