Built to save your data, not eat it
DashRate Afri converts 40+ African currencies in around 10 KB per visit — no heavy frameworks, no images, no tracking. Send Nigerian Naira to Kenyan Shillings, Ghanaian Cedi to Ugandan Shillings or South African Rand to US Dollars and instantly see what M-Pesa, MTN Mobile Money or Airtel Money would charge. Built for the slowest 3G and the tightest data bundle on the continent.
The app caches itself for offline use, so conversions keep working without a network. Exchange rates are only fetched when you're online — offline you'll see the last rates your device downloaded.
Frequently asked questions
Which African currencies does DashRate Afri support?
40+ African currencies including the Nigerian Naira (NGN), Kenyan Shilling (KES), Ghanaian Cedi (GHS), South African Rand (ZAR), Ugandan Shilling (UGX), Egyptian Pound (EGP), Tanzanian Shilling (TZS), Rwandan Franc (RWF), West African CFA (XOF) and Central African CFA (XAF), plus USD, EUR and GBP.
How are mobile money fees calculated?
Fees use tiered pricing tables for M-Pesa, MTN Mobile Money and Airtel Money. We pick the matching tier for the amount you enter and show the estimated fee per provider in the local currency.
Where do the exchange rates come from?
Live mid-market rates are fetched once on load and cached for offline use. Conversion happens locally on your device, so the app keeps working on weak 3G/4G connections.
Is DashRate Afri free?
Yes. No signup, no tracking, no installs. Open the page and convert.
Does DashRate Afri use a lot of mobile data?
No. The app is built lean — no heavy frameworks, no images, no tracking — and caches itself for offline use. After the first visit the converter keeps working without a network, but exchange rates only refresh when you're online. Offline conversions use the last rates your device downloaded.
