How to send money from Canada to Ghana?
Create your RemitBee account online or in the mobile app. Add your basic information, set up your profile, and prepare to send money to Ghana from Canada without visiting a bank branch or arranging a traditional wire transfer.
Choose Ghana, enter the amount in Canadian dollars, and review the available delivery methods. RemitBee supports bank deposits, mobile wallet transfers, and cash pickup for Ghana, so you can match the transfer to the way your recipient prefers to receive money.
Enter the recipient’s full legal name exactly as it appears on their bank account, wallet, or identification. For bank deposits, add the bank name and account number. For mobile money, choose the wallet provider and enter the mobile number. For cash pickup, confirm the pickup option and recipient details carefully.
Verify your identity to help protect your account and meet Canadian compliance requirements. You may be asked for government ID, address details, occupation information, or additional documents for larger transfers. Once verified, you can send within your available transfer limit.
Fund your Canada to Ghana transfer by Debit Card, Interac e-Transfer, Bill Payment, EFT, Direct Withdrawal, or RemitBee CAD Balance. Use Debit Card when you want instant funding. Choose bank-funded methods when you are planning ahead and want lower fees.
Review the transfer fee, CAD to GHS exchange rate, delivery method, recipient details, and final Ghanaian cedi amount. After sending, track the transfer from your RemitBee account and save the receipt or transaction reference number for your records.

What's the best way to send money to Ghana?
The best way to send money to Ghana depends on how your recipient wants to use the funds. Ghana has strong mobile money usage, but bank deposit and cash pickup are still important for many families, students, businesses, and urgent transfers.
Bank deposit is best for planned transfers, larger amounts, tuition, rent, business payments, savings, and formal account-to-account delivery. RemitBee supports transfers to major Ghana banks, including Absa Bank Ghana, CAL Bank, Ecobank Ghana, Fidelity Bank Ghana, First Atlantic Bank, GCB Bank, Prudential Bank, Universal Merchant Bank, and Zenith Bank Ghana.
Cash pickup is useful when your recipient needs physical cash or does not have easy access to a bank account or mobile wallet. RemitBee supports cash pickup through providers such as Zeepay, Access Bank, Agriculture Development Bank, Consolidated Bank of Ghana, Eco Bank, Apex Rural Bank, First Atlantic Bank, and Republic Bank of Ghana.
Mobile wallet is often a practical choice for everyday support, quick access, and recipients who use mobile money regularly. RemitBee supports mobile wallet transfers to MTN Money and Airtel Money in Ghana. Enter the correct wallet provider and mobile number, because a wrong number can delay the transfer or send the money to the wrong place.
Available payment methods & speed
Here’s how each payment option can fund your Canada to Ghana transfer, from quickest to slowest.
Use a debit card when your transfer needs to start right away. This is the fastest funding method, but it usually costs more than Interac e-Transfer, EFT, Direct Withdrawal, or Bill Payment.
Send RemitBee an Interac e-Transfer from your Canadian bank. Once received, the funds are credited to your RemitBee account and applied to your Ghana transfer.
Pay RemitBee through the bill payment section of your Canadian online banking. This is useful for planned transfers, recurring family support, and amounts over $500 CAD.
Use EFT or Direct Withdrawal to move money from your Canadian bank account to RemitBee. This works well when you want a lower-cost funding method and do not need instant processing.

Why RemitBee is the #1 app for sending money to Ghana
Sending money from Canada to Ghana should be easy to understand before you confirm. RemitBee gives Canadian senders several funding methods, competitive CAD to GHS exchange details, mobile wallet delivery, bank deposit, cash pickup, and real-time transfer tracking in one account.
Many people send money to Ghana for parents, siblings, school fees, rent, medical costs, home projects, gifts, business help, or emergency support. RemitBee lets you send from your phone or computer, so you can help someone in Accra, Kumasi, Tamale, Takoradi, Cape Coast, or another part of Ghana without using a slow bank wire.
The exchange rate decides how many Ghanaian cedis your recipient receives. A small difference in the CAD to GHS rate can matter when you send regularly or transfer larger amounts. RemitBee shows the rate and final payout before you confirm, helping you compare the real value of your transfer.
When you send more than $500 CAD and pay by Interac e-Transfer, EFT, Direct Withdrawal, or Bill Payment, your transfer can be fee-free. This is helpful for recurring family support, tuition, rent, medical costs, savings, and other planned transfers to Ghana.
Your recipient can receive funds by mobile wallet, bank deposit, or cash pickup, depending on the transfer details you choose. This flexibility matters because one person may prefer MTN Money or Airtel Money, while another may need a bank deposit or a cash pickup provider nearby.
RemitBee shows your transfer details before you send and gives you status updates after confirmation. You can check the fee, exchange rate, final GHS amount, delivery method, and transaction reference from your account. This helps you keep records and update your recipient with confidence.
