Elektra Go Lite will use its best efforts to ensure the timely processing of transactions. However, to a great degree, the service depends on factors outside of our control that might delay a transaction. Such factors may include: additional information required by Elektra Go Lite or recipient bank for your security, verification of your bank account, paying network processing hours, branch location hours/delivery hours, holidays, errors in recipient details, among others.
There are two ways: in cash, through our paying agents or credit to your beneficiary’s bank account.
Log in into your Elektra Go Lite account and click on Send Money>Transactions to check the status of your transaction. Also, when adding your beneficiary, you have the option to send and SMS to your beneficiary to notify him when the money is available for collection.
You can send money using your bank account or you can send money via credit or debit card.
Depending on the destination country, your beneficiary must present the transaction number and a valid official photo identification such as a driver’s license, passport, visa, etc.

Cancellations and refunds

You can cancel a transaction any time before it is paid to your beneficiary and without any fee. You can cancel a transaction directly from the “Transaction History” section or by clicking on the cancel icon shown in the recent transactions table of your dashboard. You can only cancel a transaction if it is in PAYABLE status and if it was done the same day of the cancellation; otherwise you will need to contact Customer Service to request the cancellation.
There are two reasons why your cancellation may be denied: either your transaction has already been paid or some type of hold was placed on it. Call customer service to get more details.
If the transaction has not been paid, you can replace your transaction for a new transaction or you can request a cancellation to create a new transaction.
If you send a money transfer to a designated beneficiary and later request that we stop the payment of this transaction, first we will check with the paying agent to determine whether or not the money transfer has already been paid to the beneficiary. If we can confirm that payment has not been made, the money transfer will be cancelled and we will issue a refund the amount of the money transfer, including the service charge. Your refund will be in USD.
Please refer to our User Agreement for specific state regulations.

Fees and exchange rate

Exchange rates are based on world currency markets, which change often. Foreign exchange rates listed in newspapers or elsewhere are usually wholesale or inter-bank rates that are not available for individuals.
Depending on the country, the beneficiary can receive local currency or USD.
