How to send money from Kenya to Seychelles on mobile

You can send money from Kenya to Seychelles on your mobile using international money transfer services such as WorldRemit, Western Union, and MoneyGram. These services typically support bank transfers or cash pickups, as direct mobile money transfers to Seychelles are less common.
