What Taptap Send is
Taptap Send is an Android and iOS app for sending money to friends and family in Africa, Asia, the Caribbean and Latin America. The company describes its audience as diaspora communities sending money back home and lists availability in the UK, US, Canada, Australia, UAE and across the EU. Depending on the destination, recipients can receive funds by bank transfer, mobile money, cash pickup or home delivery. To send, users choose a destination and amount, select a recipient and delivery method, choose a payment method, review the details and confirm. Before confirmation, the app shows the exchange rate, any fee and the amount the recipient will receive. Fees vary by sending country, destination, amount and delivery method; some transfers have no fee, and an exchange-rate margin may apply. Sending limits depend on verification level, and destination providers may set recipient-side limits. For UK sending, raising limits requires in-app photo ID and selfie verification. The company says it is licensed and regulated in listed jurisdictions and uses bank-level security and encryption technology. No subscription price is stated.
