My review on wave is mixed. I wouldn't send large amount using them. Reason being that there's consistent delay on money transfer. Atleast on every transaction they let you know there will be a delay. That's the only consistence.

 If urgent use other means.

The impression I am getting.  Safcom has opted to be conservative.  Going one on one with its M-Pesa platform.  Working with specific companies like the sendwave folks rather than opening it up to any interested party.
