What is TaptapSend?

TaptapSend is a mobile-first international money transfer service specialising in delivering funds to mobile wallets in high-diaspora corridors. The platform is backed by JPMorgan Chase and is designed primarily for migrants sending money home to Pakistan, the Philippines, Bangladesh, Kenya, Ghana, Ethiopia, and West Africa.

TaptapSend operates a zero transfer fee model: there is no fixed fee per transaction. Instead, the platform earns revenue through an exchange rate margin — the spread between the mid-market rate and the rate applied to your transfer. This model makes TaptapSend attractive for mobile wallet corridors where recipients may not have a bank account.

TaptapSend is a digital-only service — it operates exclusively through its mobile app for iOS and Android. There are no physical branches or walk-in options. The platform focuses on speed and simplicity for corridors where mobile wallet penetration is high.

How TaptapSend Makes Money

TaptapSend charges no transfer fee per transaction. Its revenue model relies entirely on the foreign exchange margin — the difference between the interbank mid-market rate and the rate offered to customers. This means the cost of your transfer is embedded in the exchange rate, not shown as a separate line item.

When comparing TaptapSend with other services, it is important to check the actual receive amount in the destination currency — not just whether a fee is shown. A zero-fee provider may still be more or less competitive than a fee-charging provider depending on the FX margin applied on that day. Always use each provider's own calculator to compare the final receive amount for your specific transfer.

How to Use TaptapSend from UAE

  5. Enter transfer details — Select destination country, delivery method (mobile wallet or bank), and recipient details (phone number for wallet transfers, account number for bank deposits).
