Hurghada, Sharm El-Sheikh, Cairo - tens of thousands of Russian speakers live in these cities. For regular transfers from Russia, what matters is not just the EGP rate, but a reliable route: ATM24 verifies the payment method before processing.
The route, the receiving bank and the payout amount are agreed before payment.
Egypt is an active destination for money transfers, particularly among Russians working in the tourism industry in Hurghada and Sharm El-Sheikh, as well as entrepreneurs with business connections in the country. EGP (Egyptian pound) has depreciated significantly between 2022–2024 against a series of devaluations, so it is best to lock in the final transfer rate at the moment of request confirmation rather than delay processing.
Fawry is one of Egypt's largest payment networks: through its terminals and services, users pay utilities, mobile bills, loans, and other services using cash or bank cards. InstaPay is the state-run instant P2P transfer system, launched with support from Egypt's Central Bank in 2022 and has quickly gained popularity. Transfers from Russia to Egypt remain available through select banks and payment routes, though the terms for receiving funds may depend on the recipient's bank and compliance checks. Egyptian banks typically operate Sunday through Thursday from 9:00 to 14:30, with Friday and Saturday as non-working days, which is important to consider when calculating transfer timelines.

Yes, at first it seems very suspicious, “what kind of scammers are these”, as if the reviews are bought… which I thought until the end, but I had to take a risk (I needed to urgently send money to Hong Kong) even considering that transfers start from $500, we decided to meet halfway After checking the site and all the available data, we had to try I was nervous, didn’t trust them, asked a lot of questions, waited a couple of hours And then when it was confirmed that it was sent my joy knew no bounds I want to express my gratitude to Stanislav for the consultation and well-executed service

ATM24 confirms the amount, payment method, fee from 0.9%, timing from 15 minutes, and bank such as National Bank of Egypt. Bank-route examples for Egypt: National Bank of Egypt, Banque Misr, United Bank, Suez Canal Bank, and Societe Arabe Internationale de Banque.
Yes, where available, the recipient can receive a transfer on a bank-issued card or bank account in Egypt in EGP on the Egypt EGP payout route. ATM24 checks the bank, card or account number, recipient name, and payout currency before payment; Visa, Mastercard, UnionPay, or local bank-card availability depends on the route. For example, Banque Misr may require a different set of details than Suez Canal Bank, so card and account routes are confirmed separately. Bank-route examples for Egypt: National Bank of Egypt, Banque Misr, United Bank, Suez Canal Bank, and Societe Arabe Internationale de Banque.
For bank payout in Egypt, useful EGP references include National Bank of Egypt, Banque Misr, United Bank, Suez Canal Bank, and Societe Arabe Internationale de Banque.

Yes, the sender can use an available card, bank transfer, USDT, or another confirmed method while the recipient receives EGP in Egypt.

For a large transfer, the manager confirms the limit and documents before the sender pays. Bank-route examples for Egypt: National Bank of Egypt, Banque Misr, United Bank, Suez Canal Bank, and Societe Arabe Internationale de Banque.

The sender receives the checklist before payment. Bank-route examples for Egypt: National Bank of Egypt, Banque Misr, United Bank, Suez Canal Bank, and Societe Arabe Internationale de Banque.
