PRIME Global firms block Kenya cash transfers in dirty money fears 18.08.2026

Two additional global cross-border payment platforms, US-based Sendwave and UK-based Wise, have stopped cash transfer services for the majority of Kenyan users starting in August, citing technical difficulties and account restrictions. They join Hurupay, which froze Kenya operations, and PayPal, which suspended services for some Kenyan users last month. These disruptions come amid heightened anti-money laundering scrutiny, as Kenya is on the Financial Action Task Force (FATF) grey list for high risks of money laundering and terrorist financing.
