CAD to XOF: What Our Records Show
Between 20 June 2026 and 18 October 2026, CheckRate recorded 75 days of CAD to XOF rates with at least three providers. LemFi had the highest standard exchange rate on 66 days and Taptap Send on 26 days. Remitly did not have the highest rate on any of those days. Remitly had the lowest rate most often (74 days). Where two providers tied, both are counted.
On a typical day the gap between the highest and lowest rate was 2.25%, ranging from 1.19% to 3.51%. On a transfer of 500 Canadian dollars, a 2.25% gap is worth about 11.25 Canadian dollars in what your recipient gets. The highest daily rate moved between about 401 and 414 XOF per Canadian dollar.
How we count: each provider's last recorded standard rate of the day. Wise is left out because it charges a separate fee that these records do not include, and Remitly's first-transfer promotional rate is left out. These are exchange rates only; a transfer fee can change which provider gives the most, which is why the table above works out the amount received. Our records have a gap in September 2026, when our rate collector was offline.

Quick Tips
- 1Always compare the estimated receive amount, not just the headline rate.
- 2Rates change daily. The best provider today may not be best tomorrow.
- 3Check how you will pay: some providers charge differently for card and bank payments, and the app shows this before you confirm.
- 4Check the recipient's details, such as the account number, before you send. A transfer to the wrong account can be hard to reverse.
Rates shown are the latest checked by CheckRate. Not guaranteed final transfer amounts. Always confirm on the provider's platform before sending.
Frequently Asked Questions: CAD to XOF
Which providers does CheckRate compare for CAD to XOF?
The comparison currently shows LemFi, Taptap Send and Remitly. A provider appears when its rate for this route has been collected within the last day, so the list can change. CheckRate is not paid by these providers.
Which provider pays the most CFA francs for Canadian dollars?
It changes. In CheckRate's records from 20 June 2026 to 18 October 2026 (75 days), the highest standard exchange rate came from LemFi on 66 days and Taptap Send on 26 days. Wise and promotional first-transfer rates are not included, and a transfer fee can change the order, so compare the amount received on the day you send.
How much difference does the provider make on CAD to XOF?
On a typical day in that period the highest rate was 2.25% above the lowest, and the gap ranged from 1.19% to 3.51%. On 500 Canadian dollars, 2.25% is about 11.25 Canadian dollars worth of CFA francs.
Does the table include fees?
Yes. Each row shows the fee CheckRate has on record and the estimated amount received after that fee. In the latest records for this route, LemFi and Taptap Send showed no transfer fee, and these fees were on record: Remitly 5.99 CAD. Fees can depend on the amount and how you pay, so the final figure is the one the provider shows before you confirm.
How can I check a provider is licensed to send money from Canada?
In Canada, money transfer companies must register with FINTRAC, and the Bank of Canada supervises payment service providers under the Retail Payment Activities Act. When we checked both public registers (9 to 11 October 2026) we found LemFi (Pomelo Technology Canada Ltd., FINTRAC M20383642), Taptap Send (Taptap Send Payments Canada Inc., FINTRAC M21060579) and Remitly (Remitly Canada, Inc., FINTRAC M15481516). Registration is not deposit insurance: CDIC does not cover money held by a transfer company. You can search both registers yourself by company name.
Is the CFA franc rate fixed?
The West African CFA franc (XOF) is pegged to the euro at 655.957 francs per euro. That fixes the official rate, not the rate a provider pays: each provider still sets its own rate and fee, so amounts received from euros can still differ, and from dollars or pounds the rate moves with the euro. XOF is used in Benin, Burkina Faso, Côte d'Ivoire, Guinea-Bissau, Mali, Niger, Senegal and Togo.
