Questions, answered.

How fast can a recipient collect cash?

Most cash payouts are ready for collection within minutes of being sent — around 80% land in minutes where the network supports it.

Where can recipients pick up cash?

At 1,000+ agent locations spanning all of Egypt's governorates, from the Nile Delta and Greater Cairo down through Upper Egypt to Aswan.

Does the recipient need a bank account or wallet?

No. Cash pickup is built for the unbanked — recipients only need their pickup reference and ID.

How do I know when cash has been collected?

Every payout fires a webhook the moment its state changes, including collection, so your systems stay in sync without polling.
