What makes this destination convenient

Instant delivery by phone number is widespread in Kazakhstan — the recipient does not have to dictate account details, the number their card is linked to is enough. The money arrives in minutes, weekends included.

The currency of delivery is tenge. Dollars sent to a tenge account arrive with a conversion at the bank rate, so it is better to receive straight away in the currency the money will be spent in.

Ways to send the money

  • Instantly by phone number

    The fastest option: delivery in minutes, at night and on weekends included. Only the recipient's number is needed.

  • To a card of a Kazakhstani bank

    The money is available to spend right away. The card number and the recipient's name are needed.

  • To an IBAN account

    For regular and large payments where a documentary trail is needed.

  • Through cryptocurrency

    When the banking route is inconvenient or the money is needed immediately.

What the recipient needs

  • The phone number linked to the card — for instant delivery
  • Or the card number and the holder's name — for a transfer to a card
  • Or the account number in international format and the name of the bank — for a transfer to an account
  • An understanding of the currency they expect: tenge or dollars to a foreign-currency account

What to pay attention to

  • The recipient's name — as it is written at their bank rather than in their passport
  • The currency of delivery — dollars sent to a tenge account are converted by the bank itself and at its own rate
  • The recipient bank's limits — they do exist on incoming transfers from abroad, and it is better to know about them before sending
  • The payment reference — for large amounts a clear wording removes half the questions

How it works with us

Kazakhstan is one of our main destinations: a 1% fee, the rate locked before payment, timing from 15 minutes. The way of collecting the money is up to the recipient.

The amount is named in tenge — in the currency the person will see credited, not in the rubles you send.

  • The amount in tenge

    Named before payment and not recalculated on delivery.

  • A 1% fee

    With no separate charge for urgency.

  • A choice of option

    A phone number, a card, an account or cash.

Common questions

Can money be sent to Kazakhstan by phone number?

Yes, that is the fastest option: delivery takes minutes and works on weekends. The number has to be linked to the recipient's card.

Which currency will the money arrive in?

In tenge, if it goes to an ordinary account or a card. Dollars can be received on a foreign-currency account — then there is no conversion.

How long does a transfer to an account take?

Usually the same day, if the transfer is sent during business hours. The exact timing depends on the recipient's bank.

Does the recipient pay a fee?

Our 1% fee is already in the amount we name. The recipient's bank may charge for an incoming transfer — that is worth checking with them.

What if the money has not arrived?

Check whether it has landed on another account of the same recipient, and message the manager who handled the deal — they have the status of the operation.
