First Atlantic Bank brings remittance pickup into a Ghanaian banking network
First Atlantic Bank began as a merchant bank in 1995, became a universal bank in 2011, and transitioned to First Atlantic Bank PLC after its 2025 IPO and Ghana Stock Exchange listing.
The bank’s current website identifies it as licensed by Ghana’s central bank, while the Bank of Ghana continues to include First Atlantic Bank among its registered banking institutions.
Its branch locator covers Greater Accra and Tema as well as locations in Kumasi, Takoradi, Tamale, Tarkwa, Techiman, and Kasoa, giving recipients options beyond central Accra.
First Atlantic Bank maintains a dedicated remittance service for receiving money from family and friends abroad, while RemitBee separately supports the bank as a Ghana cash-pickup provider.
Choose branch pickup around the way your recipient lives in Ghana
First Atlantic Bank can work well when the recipient wants physical Ghanaian cedis and has a practical FAB location nearby, but the best choice comes from matching the receiving method to their routine, checking the local branch before collection, and reviewing the complete Canadian transfer cost.
RemitBee’s dedicated provider page states that recipients using First Atlantic Bank cash pickup do not need to be account holders. That makes the route useful when a parent, relative, student, or other beneficiary prefers money in hand rather than a bank-account credit or mobile-wallet transfer, while keeping those other Ghana receiving methods available for a future payment.
First Atlantic Bank’s current locator includes several branches around Accra and Tema together with regional locations such as Adum, Suame, Takoradi, Tamale, Tarkwa, and Techiman. Checking the likely collection area beforehand can save your recipient from crossing town unnecessarily, although the transfer-specific pickup instructions should still guide the final branch visit.
RemitBee currently charges $2.99 below $500 CAD for Interac e-Transfer, EFT, or bill payment and no transfer fee above $500 for those methods, while debit pricing follows a separate scale. Its Ghana corridor lists debit funding as immediate, e-Transfer at about 15 minutes, bill payment at one business day, and EFT at one to two business days.
Give your recipient the branch details before they leave home
First Atlantic Bank’s public remittance page confirms that the bank receives international remittances, but it does not currently publish a RemitBee-specific list of accepted cash-pickup IDs. Follow the document instructions supplied for the individual payment rather than using another provider’s checklist.
If the pickup SMS is missing, the RemitBee receipt contains a reference that can help the payout location trace the transfer.
