Compare Transfer Values Before Sending
Tuma places the transfer quote at the start of the payment workflow, helping users understand how much they plan to send and how much the recipient may receive. The calculator separates the sending and receiving currencies, displays the transfer fee, and presents an exchange-rate line before a transfer is started.
This approach is useful when supporting family, paying for services, or checking whether a remittance fits a budget. Users can open Check our rates without completing a transaction, adjust the amount, and review the displayed quote. Because rates can change, the app keeps the quote visible at the decision point instead of hiding it behind the final confirmation.
Send to Wallets and Bank Accounts
Tuma is designed for cross-border payments from the United Kingdom to recipients across East Africa. Users can choose a supported destination, enter recipient details, and send funds to available mobile-wallet or bank channels. This gives people a practical way to support relatives, settle bills, or handle personal and business payments without relying on cash collection.
The home screen separates Send and Pay, while the amount card links the sender's currency to the recipient's currency. Available payout choices include MPESA and other regional wallets, with bank availability depending on the destination. Keeping destination and payout choices inside one transfer flow helps users compare the suitable delivery route before confirming payment.
Register and Verify Your Profile
Tuma allows rate checking before registration, but a completed profile is required to make transactions. New users can sign up, while returning customers can use the login link. The account flow uses contact details and identity verification so the service can meet the requirements applied to regulated money transfers.
The transaction area clearly explains when an account is needed and provides a direct Sign up now action, with Maybe later available for users who only want to explore. Once registered, users can add recipient information and a payment card before sending. This separation lets visitors review the interface first while reserving financial actions for verified account holders.
Track Transfers and Manage Account Help
The bottom navigation gives Tuma users dedicated Home, Transactions, and Account areas, so transfer activity and profile controls remain easy to find. After a payment is created, the transaction area provides the natural place to review progress, while the account area groups information and support entries away from the sending calculator.
Account tools include Security & privacy, FAQs, Legal, and Rate App links, and the home screen also provides a Need help? shortcut. These entries help users find assistance, understand service terms, and manage account-related questions without interrupting the quote workflow. For repeat senders, the consistent navigation makes it simpler to return to recent activity or prepare another transfer.
