Can I open a Netizen account for my family, so I can send money directly to them?

Yes, to open an account for your family they need to download the Netizen App on Play store and click ‘sign-up.’

Why is it better to send to my account name, rather than send it directly to my relatives?

  • Because this results in lower fees - you are doing one transfer only

  • And you can stay in control - you can then make transfers to whomever you want and when you want. 

Why does the Netizen App request permission to access my Location, Contact List, Camera and Photos?

The app needs to access your Location, Contacts List, Camera, and Photos to function properly.

 

Your location and camera are used for security purposes. Your contacts list is used for selecting fund transfer recipient/s. Your camera and photos are used for account customization
