Wely-Wely Transfert is a Guinean company specialised in proximity transfers.&nbsp;
Through a range of diversified and innovative products and services, we contribute to strengthening the financial inclusion of low-income people by democratising access to financial services on the Guinean and international markets, and by simplifying their use for our customers, wherever they are.&nbsp;
This resonates particularly well with our slogan "making money transfers accessible to everyone, everywhere", which is inspired by an approach that combines speed, flexibility and security.
The Covid-19 pandemic has led to a heightened awareness of the importance and potential of digital financial services for financial inclusion. This has created a momentum for new opportunities that we are constantly exploring.
Wely-Wely Transfer believes that financial inclusion in general and digital financial services in particular are catalysts that can support and accelerate this dynamic. We are a perfect combination of financial and technological solutions offering services adapted to the populations such as money transfers (money withdrawal/deposit), phone credit, Mobile Wallet and bill payment.
At Wely-Wely Transfer, we are proactive in ensuring that our prices, exchange rates, money opportunities and services remain competitive with local markets. We are focused on digitising and developing an online money transfer platform to enable our customers to send and receive money in record time.&nbsp;
Our goal is to ensure that our customers benefit from the advantages of tomorrow's technology today.
In addition to its traditional money transfer activity, Wely-Wely Transfert is working on the design of alternative financing models that are more accessible and less costly by offering banks an outsourcing of their banking and insurance products.
Wely-Wely Transfert differs from other local transfer structures in that it makes a point of establishing partnerships with intermediaries (or money transfer service points) such as shops, restaurants, hotels, pharmacies, grocery shops, dedicated kiosks, petrol stations, etc.
The starting point is simple: rather than opting for the costly and risky strategy of developing physical branches, Wely-Wely Transfer favours an approach based on networking with the local financial sector by offering additional services to businesses and simplifying their transition to digital in complete security.
It has a solid network of 4,000 points of sale throughout the country, a significant presence in the West African sub-region, representation in Belgium, England and the United States and has formed partnerships with the largest international money transfer operators (Western Union, MoneyGram, Ria, Small World, Xom (PayPal), Omnex, Transfast, etc.).

Having access to banking is one of the most critical part of any successful operation. Banks are an important component within the supply chain and in some cases, determine the difference being able to operate or close down. With banks reassessing their risk appetite and opting for de-risking strategies, more and more MTO&rsquo;s (small to medium size) are being underserved and forced to reduce their operations or become affiliated with/or clients of larger institutions in order to continue their business thereby limiting their operational independence.
Through our payment account solution, you will get to have your own GBP Client Segregated account that can be used for both client payments and merchant settlements. You will have a dedicated IBAN and Sort Code with an online view access to monitor your activity.
Our solution enables you to settle to other MTOs using the same service or to your own local or overseas correspondent accounts.
