Key Takeaways
On rate alone: Wise leads at ₦1,838.64, but because fees apply, the true cost may be higher than the headline suggests. Pesa (₦1,832.00) is the best of the rest, followed by NALA (₦1,830.83) and Veloremit (₦1,830.10) — all within ₦2.50 of each other.
The spread matters: The gap between the top rate (Wise at ₦1,838.64) and the lowest (Sendwave at ₦1,819.36) is ₦19.28 per pound. On a £1,000 transfer, that’s a ₦19,280 difference — so it always pays to compare before you send.
